* perf probe: Support distro-style debuginfo for uprobeMasami Hiramatsu2014-02-181-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Support distro-style debuginfo supported by dso for setting uprobes. Note that this tries to find a debuginfo file based on the real path of the target binary. If the debuginfo is not correctly installed on the system, this can not find it. Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: "David A.

* perf probe: Find given address from offline dwarfMasami Hiramatsu2014-02-181-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Find the given address from offline dwarfs instead of online kernel dwarfs. On the KASLR enabled kernel, the kernel text section is loaded with random offset, and the debuginfo__new_online_kernel can't handle it. So let's move to the offline dwarf loader instead of using the online dwarf loader. As a result, since we don't need debuginfo__new_online_kernel any more, this also removes the functions related to that. Without this change; # ./perf probe -l probe:t_show (on _stext+901288 with m v) probe:t_show_1 (on _stext+939624 with m v t) probe:t_show_2 (on _stext+980296 with m v fmt) probe:t_show_3 (on _stext+1014392 with m v file) With this change; # ./perf probe -l probe:t_show (on t_show@linux-3/kernel/trace/ftrace.c with m v) probe:t_show_1 (on t_show@linux-3/kernel/trace/trace.c with m v t) probe:t_show_2 (on t_show@kernel/trace/trace_printk.c with m v fmt) probe:t_show_3 (on t_show@kernel/trace/trace_events.c with m v file) Changes from v2: - Instead of retrying, directly opens offline dwarf. - Remove debuginfo__new_online_kernel and related functions. - Refer map->reloc to get the correct address of a symbol. - Add a special case for handling ref_reloc_sym based address.

* perf probe: Fix probing symbols with optimization suffixMasami Hiramatsu2013-09-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix perf probe to probe on some symbols which have some optimzation suffixes, e.g. ".part", ".isra", and ".constprop". To fix this issue, instead of using the DIE name, perf probe uses the symbol name found by dwfl_module_addrsym(). This also involves a perf probe --vars operation update which now shows the symbol name instead of the DIE name. Without this patch, putting a probe on an inlined function which was compiled with a suffixed symbol will fail like this: $ perf probe -v getname_flags probe-definition(0): getname_flags symbol:getname_flags file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null) 0 arguments Looking at the vmlinux_path (6 entries long) Using /lib/modules/3.11.0+/build/vmlinux for symbols found inline addr: 0xffffffff8119bb70 Probe point found: getname_flags+0 found inline addr: 0xffffffff8119bcb6 Probe point found: getname+6 found inline addr: 0xffffffff811a06a6 Probe point found: user_path_at_empty+6 find 3 probe_trace_events. Opening /sys/kernel/debug//tracing/kprobe_events write=1 Added new events: Writing event: p:probe/getname_flags getname_flags+0 Failed to write event: No such file or directory Error: Failed to add events. (-1) Because the debuginfo knows only the original (non suffix) symbol name, it uses the original symbol for probe address but the kernel (kallsyms) knows only suffixed symbol. Then, the kernel rejects that original symbol. This patch uses dwfl_module_addrsym() to get the correct (suffixed) symbol from symtab when a probe point is found.

* perf probe: Fix to search local variables in appropriate scopeMasami Hiramatsu2011-08-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix perf probe to search local variables in appropriate local inlined function scope.

* perf tools: Remove hardcoded include paths for elfutilsRobert Morell2010-11-191-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change removes the use of hardcoded absolute "/usr/include/elfutils" paths from the perf build. The problem with hardcoded paths is that it prevents them from being overridden by $prefix or by -I in CFLAGS (e.g., for cross-compiling purposes). Instead, just include the "elfutils/" subdirectory as a relative path when files are needed from that directory. Tested by building perf: - Cross-compiled for ARM on x86_64 - Built natively on x86_64 - Built on x86_64 with /usr/include/elfutils moved to another location and manually included in CFLAGS Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> LKML-Reference: <1289945793-31441-1-git-send-email-rmorell@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Robert Morell <rmorell@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add basic module probe support on perf probe.

* perf probe: Add lazy line matching supportMasami Hiramatsu2010-02-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add lazy line matching support for specifying new probes. This also changes the syntax of perf probe a bit. Now perf probe accepts one of below probe event definitions. 1) Define event based on function name [EVENT=]FUNC[@SRC][:RLN|+OFF|%return|;PTN] [ARG ...] 2) Define event based on source file with line number [EVENT=]SRC:ALN [ARG ...] 3) Define event based on source file with lazy pattern [EVENT=]SRC;PTN [ARG ...] - New lazy matching pattern(PTN) follows ';' (semicolon). And it must be put the end of the definition. - So, @SRC is no longer the part which must be put at the end of the definition. Note that ';' (semicolon) can be interpreted as the end of a command by the shell. This means that you need to quote it. (anyway you will need to quote the lazy pattern itself too, because it may contains other sensitive characters, like '[',']' etc.). Lazy matching ------------- The lazy line matching is similar to glob matching except ignoring spaces in both of pattern and target. e.g. 'a=*' can matches 'a=b', 'a = b', 'a == b' and so on. This provides some sort of flexibility and robustness to probe point definitions against minor code changes. (for example, actual 10th line of schedule() can be changed easily by modifying schedule(), but the same line matching 'rq=cpu_rq*' may still exist.) Changes in v3: - Cast Dwarf_Addr to uintmax_t for printf-formats. Changes in v2: - Cast Dwarf_Addr to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

Usage ----- perf probe [<options>] -P 'PROBEDEF' [-P 'PROBEDEF' ...] -k, --vmlinux <file> vmlinux/module pathname -P, --probe <p|r:[GRP/]NAME FUNC[+OFFS][@SRC]|@SRC:LINE [ARG ...]> probe point definition, where p: kprobe probe r: kretprobe probe GRP: Group name (optional) NAME: Event name FUNC: Function name OFFS: Offset from function entry (in byte) SRC: Source code path LINE: Line number ARG: Probe argument (local variable name or kprobe-tracer argument format is supported.) Changes in v4: - Add _GNU_SOURCE macro for strndup(). Changes in v3: - Remove -r option because perf always be used for online kernel. - Check malloc/calloc results. Changes in v2: - Check synthesized string length. - Rename perf kprobe to perf probe. - Use spaces for separator and update usage comment. - Check error paths in parse_probepoint(). - Check optimized-out variables.
