Architectures like PowerPC have jump instructions that includes a target
address as a second operand. For example, 'bne cr7,0xc0000000000f6154'.
Add support for such instruction in perf annotate.
objdump o/p:
c0000000000f6140: ld r9,1032(r31)
c0000000000f6144: cmpdi cr7,r9,0
c0000000000f6148: bne cr7,0xc0000000000f6154
c0000000000f614c: ld r9,2312(r30)
c0000000000f6150: std r9,1032(r31)
c0000000000f6154: ld r9,88(r31)
Corresponding perf annotate o/p:
Before patch:
ld r9,1032(r31)
cmpdi cr7,r9,0
v bne 3ffffffffff09f2c
ld r9,2312(r30)
std r9,1032(r31)
74: ld r9,88(r31)
After patch:
ld r9,1032(r31)
cmpdi cr7,r9,0
v bne 74
ld r9,2312(r30)
std r9,1032(r31)

For jump instructions that does not include target address as direct operand,
show the original disassembled line for them. This is needed for certain
powerpc jump instructions that use target address in a register (such as bctr,
btar, ...).
Before:
ld r12,32088(r12)
mtctr r12
v bctr ffffffffffffca2c
std r2,24(r1)
addis r12,r2,-1
After:
ld r12,32088(r12)
mtctr r12
v bctr
std r2,24(r1)
addis r12,r2,-1
Committer notes:
Testing it using a perf.data file and vmlinux for powerpc64,
cross-annotating it on a x86_64 workstation:
Before:
.__bpf_prog_run vmlinux.powerpc
│ std r10,512(r9) ▒
│ lbz r9,0(r31) ▒
│ rldicr r9,r9,3,60 ▒
│ ldx r9,r30,r9 ▒
│ mtctr r9 ▒
100.00 │ ↓ bctr 3fffffffffe01510 ▒
│ lwa r10,4(r31) ▒
│ lwz r9,0(r31) ▒
<SNIP>
Invalid jump offset: 3fffffffffe01510
After:
.__bpf_prog_run vmlinux.powerpc
│ std r10,512(r9) ▒
│ lbz r9,0(r31) ▒
│ rldicr r9,r9,3,60 ▒
│ ldx r9,r30,r9 ▒
│ mtctr r9 ▒
100.00 │ ↓ bctr ▒
│ lwa r10,4(r31) ▒
│ lwz r9,0(r31) ▒
<SNIP>
Invalid jump offset: 3fffffffffe01510
This, in turn, uncovers another problem with jumps without operands, the
ENTER/-> operation, to jump to the target, still continues using the bogus
target :-)
BTW, this was the file used for the above tests:

This is a regex converted version from the original:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/5/19/461
Add basic support to recognise AArch64 assembly. This allows perf to
identify AArch64 instructions that branch to other parts within the
same function, thereby properly annotating them.
Rebased onto new cross-arch annotation bits:

By using arch->init() to set up some regular expressions to associate
ins_ops to ARM instructions, ditching that old table that has
instructions not present on ARM.
Take advantage of having an arch->init() to hide more arm specific stuff
from the common code, like the objdump details.
The regular expressions comes from a patch written by Kim Phillips.

Some arches may want to dynamically populate the table using regular
expressions on the instruction names to associate them with a set of
parsing/formatting/etc functions (struct ins_ops), so provide a fallback
for when the ins__find() method fails.
That fall back will be able to resize the arch->instructions, setting
arch->nr_instructions appropriately, helper functions to associate an
ins_ops to an instruction name, growing the arch->instructions if needed
and resorting it are provided, all the arch specific callback needs to
do is to decide if the missing instruction should be added to
arch->instructions with a ins_ops association.

The disasm_line::name field is always equal to ins::name, being used
just to locate the instruction's ins_ops from the per-arch instructions
table.
Eliminate this duplication, nuking that field and instead make
ins__find() return an ins_ops, store it in disasm_line::ins.ops, and
keep just in disasm_line::ins.name what was in disasm_line::name, this
way we end up not keeping a reference to entries in the per-arch
instructions table.
This in turn will help supporting multiple ways to manage the per-arch
instructions table, allowing resorting that array, for instance, when
the entries will move after references to its addresses were made. The
same problem is avoided when one grows the array with realloc.
So architectures simply keeping a constant array will work as well as
architectures building the table using regular expressions or other
logic that involves resorting the table.

Another step in supporting cross annotation.
The arch specific tables are put in:
tools/perf/arch/$ARCH/annotation/instructions.c
which, so far, just plug instructions to a bunch of parsers/formatters,
but may have more as the need arises.
This is an alternative implementation to a previous attempt made by Ravi
Bangoria.

This is to cope with an ARM specific kludge introduced in the original
patch supporting ARM annotation, cfef25b8daf7 ("perf annotate: ARM

processing call instructions.
With this patchkit it should be possible to collect a perf.data file on
a ARM machine and then annotate it on a x86 workstation and have those
ARM kludges used.

Before this patch the '_raw_spin_lock_irqsave' and 'update_rq_clock' operands
were appearing just as hexadecimal numbers:

Do not ignore call instruction with indirect target when its already
identified as a call. This is an extension of commit e8ea1561952b ("perf
annotate: Use raw form for register indirect call instructions") to
generalize annotation for all instructions with indirect calls.
This is needed for certain powerpc call instructions that use address in
a register (such as bctrl, btarl, ...).
Apart from that, when kcore is used to disassemble function, all call
instructions were ignored. This patch will fix it as a side effect by
not ignoring them. For example,
Before (with kcore):
mov %r13,%rdi
callq 0xffffffff811a7e70
^ jmpq 64
mov %gs:0x7ef41a6e(%rip),%al
After (with kcore):
mov %r13,%rdi
> callq 0xffffffff811a7e70
^ jmpq 64
mov %gs:0x7ef41a6e(%rip),%al

I wanted to know the hottest path through a function and figured the
branch-stack (LBR) information should be able to help out with that.
The below uses the branch-stack to create basic blocks and generate
statistics from them.
from to branch_i
* ----> *
|
| block
v
* ----> *
from to branch_i+1
The blocks are broken down into non-overlapping ranges, while tracking
if the start of each range is an entry point and/or the end of a range
is a branch.
Each block iterates all ranges it covers (while splitting where required
to exactly match the block) and increments the 'coverage' count.
For the range including the branch we increment the taken counter, as
well as the pred counter if flags.predicted.
Using these number we can find if an instruction:
- had coverage; given by:
br->coverage / br->sym->max_coverage
This metric ensures each symbol has a 100% spot, which reflects the
observation that each symbol must have a most covered/hottest
block.
- is a branch target: br->is_target && br->start == add
- for targets, how much of a branch's coverages comes from it:
target->entry / branch->coverage
- is a branch: br->is_branch && br->end == addr
- for branches, how often it was taken:
br->taken / br->coverage
after all, all execution that didn't take the branch would have
incremented the coverage and continued onward to a later branch.
- for branches, how often it was predicted:
br->pred / br->taken
The coverage percentage is used to color the address and asm sections;
for low (<1%) coverage we use NORMAL (uncolored), indicating that these
instructions are not 'important'. For high coverage (>75%) we color the
address RED.
For each branch, we add an asm comment after the instruction with
information on how often it was taken and predicted.
Output looks like (sans color, which does loose a lot of the
information :/)

We need to initializa some fields (right now just a mutex) when we
allocate the per symbol annotation struct, so do it at the symbol
constructor instead of (ab)using the filter mechanism for that.
This way we remove one of the few cases we have for that symbol filter,

If dso__build_id_filename(..., NULL, ...) returns !NULL its because it
allocated it, so, when reaching the 'if (dso__is_kcore()) test, we
already checked that and were just "fallbacking" to using
dso->long_name, but without freeing filename, thus leaking it.
Fix it by adding the dso__is_kcore() test to the 'or' group just after
it, the one containing the full fallback code, including freeing the
filename.

We were just using pr_error() which makes it difficult for non stdio UIs
to provide errors using its widgets, as they need to somehow catch what
was passed to pr_error().
Fix it by introducing a __strerror() interface like the ones used
elsewhere, for instance target__strerror().
This is just the initial step, more work will be done, but first some
error handling bugs noticed while working on this need to be dealt with.

This function will not annotate anything, it will just disassembly the
given map->dso and symbol.
It currently does this by parsing the output of 'objdump --disassemble',
but this could conceivably be done using a library or an offshot of
the kernel's instruction decoder (arch/x86/lib/inat.c), etc.

Add basic support to parse ARM assembly.
This:
* enables perf to correctly show the disassembly, rather than chopping
some constants off at the '#' (which is not a comment character on
ARM).
* allows perf to identify ARM instructions that branch to other parts
within the same function, thereby properly annotating them.
* allows perf to identify function calls, allowing called functions to
be followed in the annotated view.

The --full-paths option did not show the full source file paths in the 'perf
annotate' tool, because the value of the option was not propagated into the
related functions.
With this patch the value of the --full-paths option is known to the function
that composes the srcline string, so it prints the full path when necessary.
Committer Note:
This affects annotate when the --print-line option is used:
# perf annotate -h 2>&1 | grep print-line
-l, --print-line print matching source lines (may be slow)
Looking just at the lines that should be affected by this change:
Before:
# perf annotate --print-line --full-paths --stdio fput | grep '\.[ch]:[0-9]\+'

When the browser fails to annotate it is difficult for users to find out
what went wrong.
Add some errors for objdump failures that are displayed in the UI.
Note it would be even better to handle these errors smarter, like
falling back to the binary when the debug info is somehow corrupted. But
for now just giving a better error is an improvement.
Committer note:
This works for --stdio, where errors just scroll by the screen:
# perf annotate --stdio intel_idle
Failure running objdump --start-address=0xffffffff81418290 --stop-address=0xffffffff814183ae -l -d --no-show-raw -S -C /root/.debug/.build-id/28/2777c262e6b3c0451375163c9a81c893218ab1 2>/dev/null|grep -v /root/.debug/.build-id/28/2777c262e6b3c0451375163c9a81c893218ab1|expand
Percent | Source code & Disassembly of vmlinux for cycles:pp
------------------------------------------------------------------
And with that one can use that command line to try to find out more about what
happened instead of getting a blank screen, an improvement.
We need tho to improve this further to get it to work with other UIs, like
--tui and --gtk, where it continues showing a blank screen, no messages, as
the pr_err() used is enough just for --stdio.

The "/proc/kcore requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO" message comes up all the time
for 'perf script' if vmlinux is not found and the user isn't root, even
when the kernel is not being traced and even though the message is only
really relevant for annotation.
Change it to pr_debug and instead put a note in the message displayed if
annotation is not possible.
Also, the file being accessed might not be /proc/kcore. Tools can be
directed to a different location using the --kallsyms option in which
case kcore is expected to be in the same directory. Adjust the message
so it is not misleading in that case.

This adds the basic infrastructure to keep track of cycle counts per

accounting, and then account branch cycles there.
We handle two cases:
cycles per basic block with start and cycles per branch (these are later
used for either IPC or just cycles per BB)
In the start case we cannot handle overlaps, so always the longest basic
block wins.
For the cycles per branch case everything is accurately accounted.
v2: Remove unnecessary checks. Slight restructure. Move
symbol__get_annotation to another patch. Move histogram allocation.
v3: Merged with current tree

To better reflect the purpose of this struct, that is to hold
info about samples, its total number and is percentage.

When annotating source/disasm lines the perf tools parse the output of
objdump, trying to provide augmented output that allows navigating
jumps, calls, etc.
But when a line output by objdump can't be parsed the annotation code
falls back to just presenting the unparsed line.
When fixing a leak in the 0fb9f2aab738 commit ("perf annotate: Fix
memory leaks in LOCK handling") we failed to take that into account and
instead tried to free one of the data structures that should be freed
only when successfully allocated, oops, segfault.
There was a change in the way the objdump output for lock prefixed
instructions is formatted that lead the relevant parser to fail to grok
it.
At least RHEL7 works ok, but Fedora 20 segfaults.
Fix it by making the ins__delete() destructor work like the most basic
destructor: free().
Namely make it accept a NULL pointer and when handling it just do
nothing.
Further investigation is needed to figure out the nature of the objdump
output change so as to make the parser grok it.

Don't use the ins's ->sncprintf() if the parsing failed.
For example, this fixes the display of "imul %edx". Without this patch:
| imul (null),(null)
After this patch:
| imul %edx
