* perf probe: Filter out redundant inline-instancesMasami Hiramatsu2011-08-121-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With gcc4.6, some instances of concrete inlined function looks redundant and broken, because it appears inside of a concrete instance and its call_file and call_line are same as the original abstruct's decl_file and decl_line respectively. e.g. [ d1aa] subprogram external (flag) Yes name (strp) "add_timer" decl_file (data1) 2 ;here is original decl_line (data2) 847 ;line and file prototyped (flag) Yes inline (data1) inlined (1) sibling (ref4) [ d1c6] ... [ 11d84] subprogram abstract_origin (ref4) [ d1aa] ; concrete instance low_pc (addr) .text+0x000000000000246f <add_timer> high_pc (addr) .text+0x000000000000248b <mod_timer_pending> frame_base (block1) [ 0] call_frame_cfa sibling (ref4) [ 11dd9] [ 11d9f] formal_parameter abstract_origin (ref4) [ d1b9] location (data4) location list [ 701b] [ 11da8] inlined_subroutine abstract_origin (ref4) [ d1aa] ; redundant instance low_pc (addr) .text+0x000000000000247e <add_timer+0xf> high_pc (addr) .text+0x0000000000002480 <add_timer+0x11> call_file (data1) 2 ; call line and file call_line (data2) 847 ; are same as above Those redundant instances leads unwilling results; e.g. find probe points inside of functions even if we specify a function entry as below; $ perf probe -V add_timer Available variables at add_timer @<add_timer+0> struct timer_list* timer @<add_timer+15> (No matched variables) So, this filters out those redundant instances based on call-site and decl-site information.

* perf probe: Search concrete out-of-line instancesMasami Hiramatsu2011-08-121-0/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | gcc 4.6 generates a concrete out-of-line instance when there is a function which is implicitly inlined somewhere but also has its own instance. The concrete out-of-line instance means that it has an abstract origin of the function which is referred by not only inlined-subroutines but also a concrete subprogram. Since current dwarf_func_inline_instances() can find only instances of inlined-subroutines, this introduces new die_walk_instances() to find both of subprogram and inlined-subroutines. e.g. without this, Available variables at sched_group_rt_period @<cpu_rt_period_read_uint+9> struct task_group* tg perf probe failed to find actual subprogram instance of sched_group_rt_period(). With this, Available variables at sched_group_rt_period @<cpu_rt_period_read_uint+9> struct task_group* tg @<sched_group_rt_period+0> struct task_group* tg Now it found the sched_group_rt_period() itself.

* perf probe: Fix to search local variables in appropriate scopeMasami Hiramatsu2011-08-121-0/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix perf probe to search local variables in appropriate local inlined function scope. For example, pre_schedule() has only 2 local variables, as below; $ perf probe -L pre_schedule <pre_schedule@/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-2.6/kernel/sched.c:0> 0 static inline void pre_schedule(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev) { 2 if (prev->sched_class->pre_schedule) 3 prev->sched_class->pre_schedule(rq, prev); } However, current perf probe shows 4 local variables on pre_schedule(), because it searches variables in the caller(schedule()) scope. $ perf probe -V pre_schedule Available variables at pre_schedule @<schedule+445> int cpu long unsigned int* switch_count struct rq* rq struct task_struct* prev This patch fixes this issue by searching variables in the local scope of the instance of inlined function. Here is the result. $ perf probe -V pre_schedule Available variables at pre_schedule @<schedule+445> struct rq* rq struct task_struct* prev Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: yrl.pp-manager.tt@hitachi.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110811110259.19900.85664.stgit@fedora15 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
* perf probe: Fix to search nested inlined functions in CUMasami Hiramatsu2011-08-121-12/+79
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix perf probe to walk through the lines of all nested inlined function call sites and declared lines when a whole CU is passed to the line walker. The die_walk_lines() can have two different type of DIEs, subprogram (or inlined-subroutine) DIE and CU DIE. If a caller passes a subprogram DIE, this means that the walker walk on lines of given subprogram. In this case, it just needs to search on direct children of DIE tree for finding call-site information of inlined function which directly called from given subprogram. On the other hand, if a caller passes a CU DIE to the walker, this means that the walker have to walk on all lines in the source files included in given CU DIE. In this case, it has to search whole DIE trees of all subprograms to find the call-site information of all nested inlined functions. Without this patch: $ perf probe --line kernel/cpu.c:151-157 </home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-2.6/kernel/cpu.c:151> static int cpu_notify(unsigned long val, void *v) { 154 return __cpu_notify(val, v, -1, NULL); } With this: $ perf probe --line kernel/cpu.c:151-157 </home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-2.6/kernel/cpu.c:151> 152 static int cpu_notify(unsigned long val, void *v) { 154 return __cpu_notify(val, v, -1, NULL); } As you can see, --line option with source line range shows the declared lines as probe-able.

* perf probe: Fix line walker to check CU correctlyMasami Hiramatsu2011-08-121-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix line walker to check whether a given DIE is CU or not. Actually this function accepts CU, subprogram and inlined_subroutine DIEs. Without this fix, perf probe always fails to analyze lines on inlined functions; $ perf probe -L pre_schedule Debuginfo analysis failed. (-2) Error: Failed to show lines. (-2) This fixes that bug, as below. $ perf probe -L pre_schedule <pre_schedule@/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-2.6/kernel/sched.c:0> 0 static inline void pre_schedule(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev { 2 if (prev->sched_class->pre_schedule) 3 prev->sched_class->pre_schedule(rq, prev); } /* rq->lock is NOT held, but preemption is disabled */ Changes from v1: - Update against current tip tree.(Fix dwarf-aux.c) Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu@gmail.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: yrl.pp-manager.tt@hitachi.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110811110235.19900.20614.stgit@fedora15 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
* perf-probe: Move dwarf library routines to dwarf-aux.{c, h}Masami Hiramatsu2011-07-151-0/+663
Move dwarf library related routines to dwarf-aux.{c,h}. This includes several minor changes. - Add simple documents for each API. - Rename die_find_real_subprogram() to die_find_realfunc() - Rename line_walk_handler_t to line_walk_callback_t. - Minor cleanups.
