For kallsyms we don't have the symbol address end, so we do an extra pass and set the symbol end addr as being the start of the next minus one. But this was being done just after we filtered the symbols of a particular type (functions, variables), so the symbol end was sometimes after what it really is. Fixing up symbol end also was falling apart when we have symbol aliases, then the end address of all but the last alias was being set to be before its start. Fix it up by checking for symbol aliases and making the kallsyms__parse routine use the next symbol, whatever its type, as the limit for the previous symbol, passing that end address to the callback. This was detected by the 'perf test' synthetic paranoid regression tests, fix it up so that even that case doesn't mislead us.

Currently perf probe doesn't handle those incorrect syntaxes: $ perf probe -L sched.c:++13 $ perf probe -L sched.c:-+13 $ perf probe -L sched.c:10000000000000000000000000000+13 This patches rewrites parse_line_range_desc() to handle them.

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.

The symfs argument allows analysis of perf.data file using a locally accessible filesystem tree with debug symbols - e.g., tree created during image builds, sshfs mount, loop mounted KVM disk images, USB keys, initrds, etc. Anything with an OS tree can be analyzed from anywhere without the need to populate a local data store with build-ids. Commiter notes: o Fixed up symfs="/" variants handling. o prefixed DSO__ORIG_GUEST_KMODULE case with symfs too, avoiding use of files outside the symfs directory.

This patch changes perf report to ask for the ID info on all events be default if recording from multiple CPUs. Perf report, annotate and diff will now process the events in order if the kernel is able to provide timestamps on all events. This ensures that events such as COMM and MMAP which are necessary to correctly interpret samples are processed prior to those samples so that they are attributed correctly.

If we are running the new perf on an old kernel without support for sample_id_all, we should fall back to the old unordered processing of events. If we didn't than we would *always* process events without timestamps out of order, whether or not we hit a reordering race. In other words, instead of there being a chance of not attributing samples correctly, we would guarantee that samples would not be attributed. While processing all events without timestamps before events with timestamps may seem like an intuitive solution, it falls down as PERF_RECORD_EXIT events would also be processed before any samples. Even with a workaround for that case, samples before/after an exec would not be attributed correctly. This patch allows commands to indicate whether they need to fall back to unordered processing, so that commands that do not care about timestamps on every event will not be affected. If we do fallback, this will print out a warning if report -D was invoked. This patch adds the test in perf_session__new so that we only need to test once per session. Commands that do not use an event_ops (such as record and top) can simply pass NULL in it's place.

The current tile rt_sigreturn() syscall pattern uses the common idiom of loading up pt_regs with all the saved registers from the time of the signal, then anticipating the fact that we will clobber the ABI "return value" register (r0) as we return from the syscall by setting the rt_sigreturn return value to whatever random value was in the pt_regs for r0. However, this breaks in our 64-bit kernel when running "compat" tasks, since we always sign-extend the "return value" register to properly handle returned pointers that are in the upper 2GB of the 32-bit compat address space. Doing this to the sigreturn path then causes occasional random corruption of the 64-bit r0 register. Instead, we stop doing the crazy "load the return-value register" hack in sigreturn. We already have some sigreturn-specific assembly code that we use to pass the pt_regs pointer to C code. We extend that code to also set the link register to point to a spot a few instructions after the usual syscall return address so we don't clobber the saved r0. Now it no longer matters what the rt_sigreturn syscall returns, and the pt_regs structure can be cleanly and completely reloaded. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

Previously we were just setting up the "tp" register in the new task as started by clone() in libc. However, this is not quite right, since in principle a signal might be delivered to the new task before it had its TLS set up. (Of course, this race window still exists for resetting the libc getpid() cached value in the new task, in principle. But in any case, we are now doing this exactly the way all other architectures do it.) This change is important for 2.6.37 since the tile glibc we will be submitting upstream will not set TLS in user space any more, so it will only work on a kernel that has this fix. It should also be taken for 2.6.36.x in the stable tree if possible. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com> Cc: stable <stable@kernel.org>
