perf tools: Include errno.h where needed

2017-04-19T16:01:51Z

Removing it from util.h, part of an effort to disentangle the includes hell, that makes changes to util.h or something included by it to cause a complete rebuild of the tools.

perf tools: Move extra string util functions to util/string2.h

2017-04-19T16:01:51Z

Moving them from util.h, where they don't belong. Since libc already have string.h, name it slightly differently, as string2.h.

perf tools: Including missing inttypes.h header

Needed to use the PRI[xu](32,64) formatting macros. Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: David Ahern Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-wkbho8kaw24q67dd11q0j39f@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf probe: Match linkage name with mangled name

2016-09-29T14:17:08Z

Match linkage name with mangled name if exists. The linkage_name is used for storing mangled name of the object. Thus, this allows 'perf probe' to find appropriate probe point from mangled symbol as below. E.g. without this fix: ---- $ perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 \ -D _ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv Probe point '_ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv' not found. Error: Failed to add events. ---- With this fix, perf probe can find the correct one. ---- $ perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 \ -D _ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv p:probe_libstdc/_ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22:0x8ca60 ---- Committer notes: After the fix, setting it for real (no -D/--definition, that amounts to a --dry-run): # perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 _ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv Added new event: probe_libstdc:_ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv (on _ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv in /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_libstdc:_ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv -aR sleep 1 # perf probe -l probe_libstdc:* probe_libstdc:_ZNKSt15basic_fstreamXXIwSt11char_traitsIwEE7is_openEv (on is_open@libstdc++-v3/include/fstream in /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22) # Reported-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Tested-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: David Ahern Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/147464493162.29804.16715053505069382443.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf probe: Move dwarf specific functions to dwarf-aux.c

2016-09-01T15:42:26Z

Move generic dwarf related functions from util/probe-finder.c to util/dwarf-aux.c. Functions name and their prototype are also changed accordingly. No functionality changes.

perf probe: Check the return value of strbuf APIs

2016-05-10T14:53:34Z

Check the return value of strbuf APIs in perf-probe related code, so that it can handle errors in strbuf. Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160510054707.6158.69861.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf probe: Check if dwarf_getlocations() is available

2016-04-06T13:44:28Z

If not, tell the user that: config/Makefile:273: Old libdw.h, finding variables at given 'perf probe' point will not work, install elfutils-devel/libdw-dev >= 0.157 And return -ENOTSUPP in die_get_var_range(), failing features that need it, like the one pointed out above. This fixes the build on older systems, such as Ubuntu 12.04.5.

perf probe: No need to use formatting strbuf method

2016-03-23T19:53:05Z

We have addch() for chars, add() for fixed size data, and addstr() for variable length strings, use them.

perf probe: Fix to show lines of sys_ functions correctly

2015-08-12T16:20:27Z

"perf probe --lines sys_poll" shows only the first line of sys_poll, because the SYSCALL_DEFINE macro: ---- SYSCALL_DEFINE*(foo,...) { body; } ---- is expanded as below (on debuginfo) ---- static inline int SYSC_foo(...) { body; } int SyS_foo(...) <- is an alias of sys_foo. { return SYSC_foo(...); } ---- So, "perf probe --lines sys_foo" decodes SyS_foo function and it also skips inlined functions(SYSC_foo) inside the target function because those functions are usually defined somewhere else. To fix this issue, this fix checks whether the inlined function is defined at the same point of the target function, and if so, it doesn't skip the inline function.
