2016-08-15perf symbols: Fix annotation of objects with debuginfo filesAnton Blanchard
Commit 73cdf0c6ea9c ("perf symbols: Record text offset in dso to calculate objdump address") started storing the offset of the text section for all DSOs: if (elf_section_by_name(elf, &ehdr, &tshdr, ".text", NULL)) dso->text_offset = tshdr.sh_addr - tshdr.sh_offset; Unfortunately this breaks debuginfo files, because we need to calculate the offset of the text section in the associated executable file. As a result perf annotate returns junk for all debuginfo files. Fix this by using runtime_ss->elf which should point at the executable when parsing a debuginfo file.

2016-07-12perf symbols: Add Rust demanglingDavid Tolnay
Rust demangling is another step after bfd demangling. Add a diagnosis to identify mangled Rust symbols based on the hash that the Rust mangler appends as the last path component, as well as other characteristics. Add a demangler to reconstruct the original symbol.

2016-07-04perf sdt: ELF support for SDTHemant Kumar
This patch serves the initial support to identify and list SDT events in binaries. When programs containing SDT markers are compiled, gcc with the help of assembler directives identifies them and places them in the section ".note.stapsdt". To find these markers from the binaries, one needs to traverse through this section and parse the relevant details like the name, type and location of the marker. Also, the original location could be skewed due to the effect of prelinking. If that is the case, the locations need to be adjusted. The functions in this patch open a given ELF, find out the SDT section, parse the relevant details, adjust the location (if necessary) and populate them in a list. A typical note entry in ".note.stapsdt" section is as follows : |--nhdr.n_namesz--| ------------------------------------ | nhdr | "stapsdt" | ----- |----------------------------------| | | <location> <base_address> | | | <semaphore> | nhdr.n_descsize | "provider_name" "note_name" | | | <args> | ----- |----------------------------------| | nhdr | "stapsdt" | |... The above shows an excerpt from the section ".note.stapsdt". 'nhdr' is a structure which has the note name size (n_namesz), note description size (n_desc_sz) and note type (n_type). So, in order to parse the note note info, we need nhdr to tell us where to start from. As can be seen from <sys/sdt.h>, the name of the SDT notes given is "stapsdt". But this is not the identifier of the note. After that, we go to description of the note to find out its location, the address of the ".stapsdt.base" section and the semaphore address. Then, we find the provider name and the SDT marker name and then follow the arguments.

2016-05-05perf symbols: Fix kallsyms perf test on ppc64leNaveen N. Rao
ppc64le functions have a Global Entry Point (GEP) and a Local Entry Point (LEP). While placing a probe, we always prefer the LEP since it catches function calls through both the GEP and the LEP. In order to do this, we fixup the function entry points during elf symbol table lookup to point to the LEPs. This works, but breaks 'perf test kallsyms' since the symbols loaded from the symbol table (pointing to the LEP) do not match the symbols in kallsyms. To fix this, we do not adjust all the symbols during symbol table load. Instead, we note down st_other in a newly introduced arch-specific member of perf symbol structure, and later use this to adjust the probe trace point.

2016-04-08perf symbols: Adjust symbol for shared objectsWang Nan
He Kuang reported a problem that perf fails to get correct symbol on Android platform in [1]. The problem can be reproduced on normal x86_64 platform. I will describe the reproducing steps in detail at the end of commit message. The reason of this problem is the missing of symbol adjustment for normal shared objects. In most of the cases skipping adjustment is okay. However, when '.text' section have different 'address' and 'offset' the result is wrong. I checked all shared objects in my working platform, only wine dll objects and debug objects (in .debug) have this problem. However, it is common on Android. For example: $ readelf -S ./libsurfaceflinger.so | grep \.text [10] .text PROGBITS 0000000000029030 00012030 This patch enables symbol adjustment for dynamic objects so the symbol address got from elfutils would be adjusted correctly. Now nearly all types of ELF files should adjust symbols. Makes ss->adjust_symbols default to true. Steps to reproduce the problem: $ cat ./Makefile PWD := $(shell pwd) LDFLAGS += "-Wl,-rpath=$(PWD)" CFLAGS += -g main: main.c libbuggy.so libbuggy.so: buggy.c gcc -g -shared -fPIC -Wl,-Ttext-segment=0x200000 $< -o $@ clean: rm -rf main libbuggy.so *.o $ cat ./buggy.c int fib(int x) { return (x == 0) ? 1 : (x == 1) ? 1 : fib(x - 1) + fib(x - 2); } $ cat ./main.c #include <stdio.h> extern int fib(int x); int main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 40; i++) printf("%d\n", fib(i)); return 0; } $ make $ perf record ./main ... $ perf report --stdio # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ....... ................. ............................... # 14.97% main libbuggy.so [.] 0x000000000000066c 8.68% main libbuggy.so [.] 0x00000000000006aa 8.52% main libbuggy.so [.] fib@plt 7.95% main libbuggy.so [.] 0x0000000000000664 5.94% main libbuggy.so [.] 0x00000000000006a9 5.35% main libbuggy.so [.] 0x0000000000000678 ...

2015-09-25perf tools: Fix copying of /proc/kcoreAdrian Hunter
A copy of /proc/kcore containing the kernel text can be made to the buildid cache. e.g. perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore To workaround objdump limitations, a copy is also made when annotating against /proc/kcore. The copying process stops working from libelf about v1.62 onwards (the problem was found with v1.63). The cause is that a call to gelf_getphdr() in kcore__add_phdr() fails because additional validation has been added to gelf_getphdr(). The use of gelf_getphdr() is a misguided attempt to get default initialization of the Gelf_Phdr structure. That should not be necessary because every member of the Gelf_Phdr structure is subsequently assigned. So just remove the call to gelf_getphdr(). Similarly, a call to gelf_getehdr() in gelf_kcore__init() can be removed also. Committer notes: Note to stable@kernel.org, from Adrian in the cover letter for this patchkit: The "Fix copying of /proc/kcore" problem goes back to v3.13 if you think it is important enough for stable.

2015-06-08perf tools: Reference count struct dsoArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
This has a different model than the 'thread' and 'map' struct lifetimes: there is not a definitive "don't use this DSO anymore" event, i.e. we may get many 'struct map' holding references to the '/usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so' DSO but then at some point some DSO may have no references but we still don't want to straight away release its resources, because "soon" we may get a new 'struct map' that needs it and we want to reuse its symtab or other resources. So we need some way to garbage collect it when crossing some memory usage threshold, which is left for anoter patch, for now it is sufficient to release it when calling dsos__exit(), i.e. when deleting the whole list as part of deleting the 'struct machine' containing it, which will leave only referenced objects being used.

We have pointers to struct map instances in several places, like in the hist_entry instances, so we need a way to know when we can destroy them, otherwise we may either keep leaking them or end up referencing deleted instances. Start fixing it by reference counting them. This patch puts the reference count for struct map in place, replacing direct map__delete() calls with map__put() ones and then grabbing a reference count when adding it to the maps struct where maps for a struct thread are kept. Next we'll grab reference counts when setting pointers to struct map instances, in places like in the hist_entry code.

Some C++ symbols have very long name and they make column length longer. Most of them are about parameters including templates and we can ignore such info most of time IMHO. This patch passes DMGL_NO_OPTS by default when calling bfd_demangle().

dso__type() determines wheather a dso is 32-bit, x32 (32-bit with 64-bit registers) or 64-bit. dso__type() will be used to determine the VDSO a program maps.

Add a flag to 'struct dso' to record if the dso is 64-bit or not. Update the flag when reading the ELF. This is needed for instruction decoding. For example, x86 instruction decoding depends on whether or not the 64-bit instruction set is used.

2014-01-31perf symbols: Fix symbol annotation for relocated kernelAdrian Hunter
Kernel maps map memory addresses to file offsets. For symbol annotation, objdump needs the object VMA addresses. For an unrelocated kernel, that is the same as the memory address.
