| * perf probe: Fix listing incorrect line number with inline functionMasami Hiramatsu2011-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a bug showing incorrect line number when a probe is put on the head of an inline function. This patch updates find_perf_probe_point() and introduces new rules to get correct line number. - If debuginfo doesn't have a correct file name, we shouldn't return line number too, because, without file name, line number is meaningless. - If the address is in a function, it stores the function name and the offset from the function entry. - If the address is on a line, it tries to get the relative line number from the function entry line, except for the address is same as the entry address of the function (in this case, the relative line number should be 0). - If the address is in an inline function entry (call-site), it uses the inline function call line number as the line on which the address is. - If the address is in an inline function body, it stores the inline function name and offset from the inline function call site instead of the (non-inlined) function.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Newer compilers (gcc 4.6) complains about: return ret < 0 ?: 0; For the following reason: util/probe-finder.c: In function ‘probe_point_lazy_walker’: util/probe-finder.c:1331:18: error: the omitted middle operand in ?: will always be ‘true’, suggest explicit middle operand [-Werror=parentheses] And indeed the return value is a somewhat obscure (but correct) value of 'true', so return 'ret' instead - this is cleaner and unconfuses GCC as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While fixing an error propagating problem in f809b25 I added two redundant checks. I did that because I didn't expect the checks to be on the while and for loop condition expression, where they are tested before we run the loop, where the 'ret' variable is set. So remove it from there and leave it just after it is actually set, eliminating unneded tests.

* perf probe: Fix error propagation leading to segfaultArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2011-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are two hunks in this patch that stops probe processing as soon as one error is found, breaking out of loops, the other fix an error propagation that should return a negative error number but instead was returning the result of "ret < 0", which is 1 and thus made several error checks fail because they test agains < 0. The problem could be triggered by asking for a variable that was optimized out, fact that should stop the whole probe processing but instead was segfaulting while installing broken probes: [root@emilia ~]# probe perf_mmap:55 user_lock_limit Failed to find the location of user_lock_limit at this address.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the libdwfl library before 0.148 fails to analyze live kernel debuginfo, 'perf probe --list' compiled with those old libdwfl sometimes crashes. To avoid that bug, perf probe does not use libdwfl's live kernel analysis routine when it is compiled with older libdwfl. Side effect: perf with older libdwfl doesn't support listing probe in modules with source code line. Those could be shown by symbol+offset.
