2015-05-04perf probe ppc64le: Fix ppc64 ABIv2 symbol decodingAnanth N Mavinakayanahalli1-0/+4
ppc64 ELF ABIv2 has a Global Entry Point (GEP) and a Local Entry Point (LEP). For purposes of probing, we need the LEP - the offset to which is encoded in st_other.

2015-04-08perf kmaps: Check kmaps to make code more robustWang Nan1-5/+11
This patch add checks in places where map__kmap is used to get kmaps from struct kmap. Error messages are added at map__kmap to warn invalid accessing of kmap (for the case of !map->dso->kernel, kmap(map) does not exists at all). Also, introduces map__kmaps() to warn uninitialized kmaps.

2015-03-24perf symbols: Save DSO loading errno to better report errorsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-10/+27
Before, when some problem happened while trying to load the kernel symtab, 'perf top' would show: ┌─Warning:───────────────────────────┐ │The vmlinux file can't be used. │ │Kernel samples will not be resolved.│ │ │ │ │ │Press any key... │ └────────────────────────────────────┘ Now, it reports: # perf top --vmlinux /dev/null ┌─Warning:───────────────────────────────────────────┐ │The /tmp/passwd file can't be used: Invalid ELF file│ │Kernel samples will not be resolved. │ │ │ │ │ │Press any key... │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ This is possible because we now register the reason for not being able to load the symtab in the dso->load_errno member, and provide a dso__strerror_load() routine to format this error into a strerror like string with a short reason for the error while loading. That can be just forwarding the dso__strerror_load() call to strerror_r(), or, for a separate errno range providing a custom message.

2015-03-12perf symbols: Allow symbol alias when loading map for symbol nameNamhyung Kim1-1/+2
When perf probe tries to add a probe in a binary using symbol name, it sometimes failed since some symbols were discard during loading dso. When it resolves an address to symbol, it'd be better to have just one symbol at given address. But for finding address from symbol, it'd be better to keep all names (including aliases). So allow tools to state that they want to allow aliases via symbol_conf.allow_aliases.

2014-11-24perf symbols: Move bfd_demangle stubbing to its only userArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+21
We need to define bfd_demangle() to either a wrapper for cplus_demangle() or to a stub when NO_DEMANGLE is defined. That is at odds with using bfd.h for some other reason, as it defines bfd_demangle() and then if code that wants to use symbol.h, where the above stubbing/wrapping is done, and bfd.h for other reasons, we end up with a build error where bfd_demangle() is found to be redefined. Avoid that by moving the stubbing/wrapping to symbol-elf.c, that is the only user of such function. If we ever get to a point where there are more valid users, we can then introduce a header for that.

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. The addresses passed to objdump for symbol annotation did not take into account kernel relocation. This patch fixes that.

2013-10-14perf buildid-cache: Add ability to add kcore to the cacheAdrian Hunter1-0/+366
kcore can be used to view the running kernel object code. However, kcore changes as modules are loaded and unloaded, and when the kernel decides to modify its own code. Consequently it is useful to create a copy of kcore at a particular time. Unlike vmlinux, kcore is not unique for a given build-id. And in addition, the kallsyms and modules files are also needed. The tool therefore creates a directory: ~/.debug/[kernel.kcore]/<build-id>/<YYYYmmddHHMMSShh> which contains: kcore, kallsyms and modules. Note that the copied kcore contains only code sections. See the kcore_copy() function for how that is determined. The tool will not make additional copies of kcore if there is already one with the same modules at the same addresses. Currently, perf tools will not look for kcore in the cache. That is addressed in another patch.

The new "object code reading" test shows that it is not possible to read object code from vmlinux. That is because the mappings do not map to the dso. This patch fixes that. A side-effect of changing the kernel map is that the "reloc" offset must be taken into account. As a result of that separate map functions for relocation are no longer needed. Also fixing up the maps to match the symbols no longer makes sense and so is not done. The vmlinux dso data_type is now set to either DSO_BINARY_TYPE__VMLINUX or DSO_BINARY_TYPE__GUEST_VMLINUX as approprite, which enables the correct file name to be determined by dso__binary_type_file().

2012-08-13perf symbols: Use both runtime and debug imagesCody P Schafer1-0/+5
We keep both a 'runtime' elf image as well as a 'debug' elf image around and generate symbols by looking at both of these. This eliminates the need for the want_symtab/goto restart mechanism combined with iterating over and reopening the elf images a second time. Also give dso__synthsize_plt_symbols() the runtime image (which has dynsyms) instead of the symbol image (which may only have a symtab and no dynsyms). Previously if a debug image was found all runtime images were ignored. This fixes 2 issues: - Symbol resolution to failure on PowerPC systems with debug symbols installed, as the debug images lack a '.opd' section which contains function descriptors. - On all archs, plt synthesis failed when a debug image was loaded and that debug image lacks a dynsym section while a runtime image has a dynsym section. Assumptions: - If a .opd section exists, it is contained in the highest priority image with a dynsym section. - This generally implies that the debug image lacks a dynsym section (ie: it is marked as NO_BITS).

To properly handle platforms with an opd section, both a runtime image (which contains the opd section but possibly lacks symbols) and a symbol image (which probably lacks an opd section but has symbols). The next patch ("perf symbol: use both runtime and debug images") adjusts the callsite in dso__load() to take advantage of being able to pass both runtime & debug images. Assumptions made here: - The opd section, if it exists in the runtime image, has headers in both the runtime image and the debug/syms image. - The index of the opd section (again, only if it exists in the runtime image) is the same in both the runtime and debug/symbols image. Both of these are true on RHEL, but it is unclear how accurate they are in general (on platforms with function descriptors in opd sections).
