2013-10-23perf probe: Support "$vars" meta argument syntax for local variablesMasami Hiramatsu1-1/+0
Support "$vars" meta argument syntax for tracing all local variables at probe point. Now you can trace all available local variables (including function parameters) at the probe point by passing $vars. # perf probe --add foo $vars This automatically finds all local variables at foo() and adds it as probe arguments.

2012-09-24perf tools: remove sscanf extension %asIrina Tirdea1-7/+29
perf uses sscanf extension %as to read and allocate a string in the same step. This is a non-standard extension only present in new versions of glibc. Replacing the use of sscanf and %as with strtok_r calls in order to parse a given string into its components. This is needed in Android since bionic does not support %as extension for sscanf.

2012-09-11perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variablesIrina Tirdea1-10/+11
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

2012-02-29perf probe: Ensure offset provided is not greater than function length ↵Prashanth Nageshappa1-0/+6
without DWARF info too The 'perf probe' command allows kprobe to be inserted at any offset from a function start, which results in adding kprobes to unintended location. (example: perf probe do_fork+10000 is allowed even though size of do_fork is ~904). My previous patch https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/24/42 addressed the case where DWARF info was available for the kernel. This patch fixes the case where perf probe is used on a kernel without debuginfo available.

2012-01-30perf tools: Fix broken build by defining _GNU_SOURCE in MakefileDavid Daney1-2/+0
When building on my Debian/mips system, util/util.c fails to build because commit 1aed2671738785e8f5aea663a6fda91aa7ef59b5 (perf kvm: Do guest-only counting by default) indirectly includes stdio.h before the feature selection in util.h is done. This prevents _GNU_SOURCE in util.h from enabling the declaration of getline(), from now second inclusion of stdio.h, and the build is broken. There is another breakage in util/evsel.c caused by include ordering, but I didn't fully track down the commit that caused it. The root cause of all this is an inconsistent definition of _GNU_SOURCE, so I move the definition into the Makefile so that it is passed to all invocations of the compiler and used uniformly for all system header files. All other #define and #undef of _GNU_SOURCE are removed as they cause conflicts with the definition passed to the compiler. All the features.h definitions (_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and _GNU_SOURCE) are needed by the python glue code too, so they are moved to BASIC_CFLAGS, and the misleading comments about BASIC_CFLAGS are removed. This gives me a clean build on x86_64 (fc12) and mips (Debian).

Using %L[uxd] has issues in some architectures, like on ppc64. Fix it by making our 64 bit integers typedefs of stdint.h types and using PRI[ux]64 like, for instance, git does. Reported by Denis Kirjanov that provided a patch for one case, I went and changed all cases.

2010-12-27perf probe: Fix short file name probe location reportingFranck Bui-Huu1-7/+7
After adding probes, perf-probe(1) reports the probes locations which include filenames for certain cases. But for short file names (whose length < 32), perf-probe didn't display the name correctly. It actually skipped the first character. Here's an example where 'icmp.c' was screwed: $ perf probe -n -a "icmp.c;sk=*" Add new events: probe:icmp_push_reply (on @cmp.c) probe:icmp_reply (on @cmp.c) probe:icmp_reply_1 (on @cmp.c) probe:icmp_send (on @cmp.c) probe:icmp_send_1 (on @cmp.c) probe:icmp_error (on @cmp.c) probe:icmp_error_1 (on @cmp.c) probe:icmp_error_2 (on @cmp.c) probe:icmp_error_3 (on @cmp.c) This patch fixes this bug in synthesize_perf_probe_point().

2010-12-21perf probe: Don't always consider EOF as an error when listing source codeFranck Bui-Huu1-12/+26
When listing a whole file or a function which is located at the end, perf-probe -L output wrongly: "Source file is shorter than expected.". This is because show_one_line() always consider EOF as an error. This patch fixes this by not considering EOF as an error when dumping the trailing lines. Otherwise it's still an error and perf-probe still outputs its warning.

The actual file used by 'perf probe -L sched.c' is reported in the ouput of the command. But it's simply displayed as it has been given to the command (simply sched.c) which is too ambiguous to be really usefull since several sched.c files can be found into the same project and we also don't know which search path has been used.

Add basic module probe support on perf probe. This introduces "--module <MODNAME>" option to perf probe for putting probes and showing lines and variables in the given module. Currently, this supports only probing on running modules. Supporting off-line module probing is the next step. e.g.) [show lines] # ./perf probe --module drm -L drm_vblank_info <drm_vblank_info:0> 0 int drm_vblank_info(struct seq_file *m, void *data) 1 { struct drm_info_node *node = (struct drm_info_node *) m->private 3 struct drm_device *dev = node->minor->dev; ...

2010-07-16perf probe: Support comp_dir to find an absolute source pathMasami Hiramatsu1-12/+22
Gcc generates DW_AT_comp_dir and stores relative source path if building kernel without O= option. In that case, perf probe --line sometimes doesn't work without --source option, because it tries to access relative source path. This adds DW_AT_comp_dir support to perf probe for finding an absolute source path when no --source option.
