perf annotate: Fix jump target outside of function address range
If jump target is outside of function range, perf is not handling it correctly. Especially when target address is lesser than function start address, target offset will be negative. But, target address declared to be unsigned, converts negative number into 2's complement. See below example. Here target of 'jumpq' instruction at 34cf8 is 34ac0 which is lesser than function start address(34cf0). 34ac0 - 34cf0 = -0x230 = 0xfffffffffffffdd0 Objdump output: 0000000000034cf0 <__sigaction>: __GI___sigaction(): 34cf0: lea -0x20(%rdi),%eax 34cf3: cmp -bashx1,%eax 34cf6: jbe 34d00 <__sigaction+0x10> 34cf8: jmpq 34ac0 <__GI___libc_sigaction> 34cfd: nopl (%rax) 34d00: mov 0x386161(%rip),%rax # 3bae68 <_DYNAMIC+0x2e8> 34d07: movl -bashx16,%fs:(%rax) 34d0e: mov -bashxffffffff,%eax 34d13: retq perf annotate before applying patch: __GI___sigaction /usr/lib64/libc-2.22.so lea -0x20(%rdi),%eax cmp -bashx1,%eax v jbe 10 v jmpq fffffffffffffdd0 nop 10: mov _DYNAMIC+0x2e8,%rax movl -bashx16,%fs:(%rax) mov -bashxffffffff,%eax retq perf annotate after applying patch: __GI___sigaction /usr/lib64/libc-2.22.so lea -0x20(%rdi),%eax cmp -bashx1,%eax v jbe 10 ^ jmpq 34ac0 <__GI___libc_sigaction> nop 10: mov _DYNAMIC+0x2e8,%rax movl -bashx16,%fs:(%rax) mov -bashxffffffff,%eax retq Signed-off-by: Ravi Bangoria <[email protected]> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <[email protected]> Cc: Chris Riyder <[email protected]> Cc: Kim Phillips <[email protected]> Cc: Markus Trippelsdorf <[email protected]> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <[email protected]> Cc: Naveen N.
