Avi Kivity 763122ade7 perf tools: Disable kernel symbol demangling by default
Some Linux symbols (for example __vt_event_wait) are interpreted by the
demangler as C++ mangled names, which of course they aren't.

Disable kernel symbol demangling by default to avoid this, and allow
enabling it with a new option --demangle-kernel for those who wish it.

Namhyung Kim e71e79457b perf symbols: Don't demangle parameters and such by default
Some C++ symbols have very long name and they make column length longer.
Most of them are about parameters including templates and we can ignore
such info most of time IMHO.

This patch passes DMGL_NO_OPTS by default when calling bfd_demangle().
One can still see full symbols with -v/--verbose option.

before:
  JS_CallFunctionValue(JSContext*, JSObject*, JS::Value, unsigned int, JS::Value*, JS::Value*)

after:
  JS_CallFunctionValue

Namhyung Kim 0a7e6d1b68 perf tools: Check recorded kernel version when finding vmlinux
Currently vmlinux_path__init() only tries to find vmlinux file from
current directory, /boot and some canonical directories with version
number of the running kernel.  This can be a problem when reporting old
data recorded on a kernel version not running currently.

We can use --symfs option for this but it's annoying for user to do it
always.  As we already have the info in the perf.data file, it can be
changed to use it for the search automatically.

Before:

  $ perf report
  ...
  # Samples: 4K of event 'cpu-clock'
  # Event count (approx.): 1067250000
  #
  # Overhead  Command     Shared Object      Symbol
  # ........  ..........  .................  ..............................
      71.87%     swapper  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] recover_probed_instruction

After:

  # Overhead  Command     Shared Object      Symbol
  # ........  ..........  .................  ....................
      71.87%     swapper  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] native_safe_halt

This requires to change signature of symbol__init() to receive struct
perf_session_env *.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 972f393bc8 perf symbols: Make sure --symfs usage includes the path separator
Minchan reported that perf failed to load vmlinux if --symfs argument

Fix it by making sure that the '/' path separator is used when composing

Namhyung Kim f214833054 perf report: Add --percentage option
The --percentage option is for controlling overhead percentage
displayed.  It can only receive either of "relative" or "absolute".

"relative" means it's relative to filtered entries only so that the
sum of shown entries will be always 100%.  "absolute" means it retains
the original value before and after the filter is applied.

  $ perf report -s comm

Namhyung Kim b3cef7f60f perf symbols: Record the reason for filtering an address_location
By turning the addr_location->filtered member from a boolean to a u8
bitmap, reusing (and extending) the hist_filter enum for that.

This patch doesn't change the logic at all, as it keeps the meaning of
al->filtered !0 to mean that the entry _was_ filtered, so no change in
how this value is interpreted needs to be done at this point.

This will be soon used in upcoming patches.

Masami Hiramatsu eb948e5083 perf probe: Allow to add events on the local functions
Allow to add events on the local functions without debuginfo.
(With the debuginfo, we can add events even on inlined functions)
Currently, probing on local functions requires debuginfo to
locate actual address. It is also possible without debuginfo since
we have symbol maps.

Without this change;
  ----
  # ./perf probe -a t_show
  Added new event:
    probe:t_show         (on t_show)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e probe:t_show -aR sleep 1

  # ./perf probe -x perf -a identity__map_ip
  no symbols found in /kbuild/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf, maybe install a debug package?
  Failed to load map.
    Error: Failed to add events. (-22)
  ----
As the above results, perf probe just put one event
on the first found symbol for kprobe event. Moreover,
for uprobe event, perf probe failed to find local
functions.

With this change;
  ----
  # ./perf probe -a t_show
  Added new events:
    probe:t_show         (on t_show)
    probe:t_show_1       (on t_show)
    probe:t_show_2       (on t_show)
    probe:t_show_3       (on t_show)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e probe:t_show_3 -aR sleep 1

  # ./perf probe -x perf -a identity__map_ip
  Added new events:
    probe_perf:identity__map_ip (on identity__map_ip in /kbuild/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf)
    probe_perf:identity__map_ip_1 (on identity__map_ip in /kbuild/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf)
    probe_perf:identity__map_ip_2 (on identity__map_ip in /kbuild/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf)
    probe_perf:identity__map_ip_3 (on identity__map_ip in /kbuild/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e probe_perf:identity__map_ip_3 -aR sleep 1
  ----
Now we succeed to put events on every given local functions
for both kprobes and uprobes. :)

Note that this also introduces some symbol rbtree
iteration macros; symbols__for_each, dso__for_each_symbol,
and map__for_each_symbol. These are for walking through
the symbol list in a map.

Changes from v2:
  - Fix add_exec_to_probe_trace_events() not to convert address
    to tp->symbol any more.
  - Fix to set kernel probes based on ref_reloc_sym.

Adrian Hunter fc1b691d76 perf buildid-cache: Add ability to add kcore to the cache
kcore can be used to view the running kernel object code.  However,
kcore changes as modules are loaded and unloaded, and when the kernel
decides to modify its own code.  Consequently it is useful to create a
copy of kcore at a particular time.  Unlike vmlinux, kcore is not unique
for a given build-id.  And in addition, the kallsyms and modules files
are also needed.  The tool therefore creates a directory:

	~/.debug/[kernel.kcore]/<build-id>/<YYYYmmddHHMMSShh>

which contains: kcore, kallsyms and modules.

Note that the copied kcore contains only code sections.  See the
kcore_copy() function for how that is determined.

The tool will not make additional copies of kcore if there is already
one with the same modules at the same addresses.

Currently, perf tools will not look for kcore in the cache.  That is
addressed in another patch.

Adrian Hunter afba19d9dc perf symbols: Workaround objdump difficulties with kcore
The objdump tool fails to annotate module symbols when looking at kcore.

Workaround this by extracting object code from kcore and putting it in a
temporary file for objdump to use instead.

The temporary file is created to look like kcore but contains only the
function being disassembled.

Irina Tirdea 1d037ca164 perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variables
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.

Cody P Schafer 3aafe5ae08 perf symbols: Use both runtime and debug images
We keep both a 'runtime' elf image as well as a 'debug' elf image around
and generate symbols by looking at both of these.

This eliminates the need for the want_symtab/goto restart mechanism
combined with iterating over and reopening the elf images a second time.

Also give dso__synthsize_plt_symbols() the runtime image (which has
dynsyms) instead of the symbol image (which may only have a symtab and
no dynsyms).

Previously if a debug image was found all runtime images were ignored.

This fixes 2 issues:

 - Symbol resolution to failure on PowerPC systems with debug symbols
   installed, as the debug images lack a '.opd' section which contains
   function descriptors.

 - On all archs, plt synthesis failed when a debug image was loaded and
   that debug image lacks a dynsym section while a runtime image has a
   dynsym section.

Assumptions:

 - If a .opd section exists, it is contained in the highest priority
   image with a dynsym section.

 - This generally implies that the debug image lacks a dynsym section
   (ie: it is marked as NO_BITS).

image (which probably lacks an opd section but has symbols).

The next patch ("perf symbol: use both runtime and debug images")
adjusts the callsite in dso__load() to take advantage of being able to
pass both runtime & debug images.

Assumptions made here:

 - The opd section, if it exists in the runtime image, has headers in
   both the runtime image and the debug/syms image.

 - The index of the opd section (again, only if it exists in the runtime
   image) is the same in both the runtime and debug/symbols image.

Both of these are true on RHEL, but it is unclear how accurate they are
in general (on platforms with function descriptors in opd sections).

Cody P Schafer d26cd12b46 perf symbols: Factor want_symtab out of dso__load_sym()
Only one callsite of dso__load_sym() uses the want_symtab functionality,
so place the logic at the callsite instead of within dso__load_sym().

This sets us up for removal of want_symtab completely once we keep
multiple elf handles (within symsrc's) around.

Cody P Schafer a44f605b2f perf symbols: Switch dso__synthesize_plt_symbols() to use symsrc
Previously dso__synthesize_plt_symbols() was reopening the elf file to
obtain dynsyms from it. Rather than reopen the file, use the already
opened reference within the symsrc to access it.

Cody P Schafer b68e2f919c perf symbols: Introduce symsrc structure.
Factors opening of certain sections & tracking certain elf info into an
external structure.

The goal here is to keep multiple elfs (and their looked up
sections/indexes) around during the symbol generation process (in
dso__load()).

We need this to properly resolve symbols on PPC due to the use of
function descriptors & the .opd section (ie: symbols which are functions
don't point to their actual location, they point to their function
descriptor in .opd which contains their actual location.

It would be possible to just keep the (Elf *) around, but then we'd end
up with duplicate code for looking up the same sections and checking for
the existence of an important section wouldn't be as clean (and we need
to keep the Elf stuff confined to symtab-elf.c).

Utilized by the later patch

Previously, symtab_type would have been left at 0, or KALLSYMS, which is
not quite accurate.
