2010-02-25perf probe: Add lazy line matching supportMasami Hiramatsu1-60/+189
Add lazy line matching support for specifying new probes. This also changes the syntax of perf probe a bit. Now perf probe accepts one of below probe event definitions. 1) Define event based on function name [EVENT=]FUNC[@SRC][:RLN|+OFF|%return|;PTN] [ARG ...] 2) Define event based on source file with line number [EVENT=]SRC:ALN [ARG ...] 3) Define event based on source file with lazy pattern [EVENT=]SRC;PTN [ARG ...] - New lazy matching pattern(PTN) follows ';' (semicolon). And it must be put the end of the definition. - So, @SRC is no longer the part which must be put at the end of the definition. Note that ';' (semicolon) can be interpreted as the end of a command by the shell. This means that you need to quote it. (anyway you will need to quote the lazy pattern itself too, because it may contains other sensitive characters, like '[',']' etc.). Lazy matching ------------- The lazy line matching is similar to glob matching except ignoring spaces in both of pattern and target. e.g. 'a=*' can matches 'a=b', 'a = b', 'a == b' and so on. This provides some sort of flexibility and robustness to probe point definitions against minor code changes. (for example, actual 10th line of schedule() can be changed easily by modifying schedule(), but the same line matching 'rq=cpu_rq*' may still exist.) Changes in v3: - Cast Dwarf_Addr to uintmax_t for printf-formats. Changes in v2: - Cast Dwarf_Addr to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

2010-02-25perf probe: Check function address range strictly in line finderMasami Hiramatsu1-21/+53
Check (inlined) function address range strictly for improving output of probe-able lines of inline functions. Without this change, perf probe --line <function> sometimes showed other inline function bodies too, because it didn't filter out inlined functions.

2010-02-25perf probe: Use elfutils-libdw for analyzing debuginfoMasami Hiramatsu1-422/+274
Newer gcc introduces newer & richer debuginfo, and only libdw in elfutils project can support it. So perf probe moves onto elfutils-libdw from libdwarf. Changes in v3: - Cast Dwarf_Addr/Dwarf_Word to uintmax_t for printf-formats. - Recover a sign-prefix which was removed in v2 by mistake. Changes in v2: - Fix a type-casting bug in Makefile. - Cast Dwarf_Addr/Dwarf_Word to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

2010-01-13perf probe: Support --line option to show probable source-code linesMasami Hiramatsu1-5/+186
Add --line option to support showing probable source-code lines. perf probe --line SRC:LN[-LN|+NUM] or perf probe --line FUNC[:LN[-LN|+NUM]] This option shows source-code with line number if the line can be probed. Lines without line number (and blue color) means that the line can not be probed, because debuginfo doesn't have the information of those lines. The argument specifies the range of lines, "source.c:100-120" shows lines between 100th to l20th in source.c file. And "func:10+20" shows 20 lines from 10th line of func function. e.g. # ./perf probe --line kernel/sched.c:1080 <kernel/sched.c:1080> * * called with rq->lock held and irqs disabled */ static void hrtick_start(struct rq *rq, u64 delay) { struct hrtimer *timer = &rq->hrtick_timer; 1086 ktime_t time = ktime_add_ns(timer->base->get_time(), delay); hrtimer_set_expires(timer, time); 1090 if (rq == this_rq()) { 1091 hrtimer_restart(timer); 1092 } else if (!rq->hrtick_csd_pending) { 1093 __smp_call_function_single(cpu_of(rq), &rq->hrtick_csd, 1094 rq->hrtick_csd_pending = 1; If you specifying function name, this shows function-relative line number. # ./perf probe --line schedule <schedule:0> asmlinkage void __sched schedule(void) 1 { struct task_struct *prev, *next; unsigned long *switch_count; struct rq *rq; int cpu; need_resched: preempt_disable(); 9 cpu = smp_processor_id(); 10 rq = cpu_rq(cpu); 11 rcu_sched_qs(cpu); 12 prev = rq->curr; 13 switch_count = &prev->nivcsw; Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: systemtap <systemtap@sources.redhat.com> Cc: DLE <dle-develop@lists.sourceforge.net> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> LKML-Reference: <20100106144534.27218.77939.stgit@dhcp-100-2-132.bos.redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
