The fake symbols we create for inlined frames will represent different functions but can use the symbol start address. This leads to issues when different inline branches all lead to the same function. Before: ~~~~~ $ perf report -s sym -i perf.inlining.data --inline --stdio -g function ... --38.86%--_start __libc_start_main main | --37.57%--std::norm<double> (inlined) std::_Norm_helper<true>::_S_do_it<double> (inlined) | --36.36%--std::abs<double> (inlined) std::__complex_abs (inlined) | --12.24%--std::linear_congruential_engine<unsigned long, 16807ul, 0ul, 2147483647ul>::operator() (inlined) std::__detail::__mod<unsigned long, 2147483647ul, 16807ul, 0ul> (inlined) std::__detail::_Mod<unsigned long, 2147483647ul, 16807ul, 0ul, true, true>::__calc (inlined) ~~~~~ Note that this backtrace representation is completely bogus. Complex abs does not call the linear congruential engine! It is just a side-effect of a longer inlined stack being appended to a shorter, different inlined stack, both of which originate in the same function (main). This patch fixes the issue: ~~~~~ $ perf report -s sym -i perf.inlining.data --inline --stdio -g function ... --38.86%--_start __libc_start_main main | |--35.59%--std::uniform_real_distribution<double>::operator()<std::linear_congruential_engine<unsigned long, 16807ul, 0ul, 2147483647ul> > (inlined) | std::uniform_real_distribution<double>::operator()<std::linear_congruential_engine<unsigned long, 16807ul, 0ul, 2147483647ul> > (inlined) | | | --34.37%--std::__detail::_Adaptor<std::linear_congruential_engine<unsigned long, 16807ul, 0ul, 2147483647ul>, double>::operator() (inlined) | std::generate_canonical<double, 53ul, std::linear_congruential_engine<unsigned long, 16807ul, 0ul, 2147483647ul> > (inlined) | | | --12.24%--std::linear_congruential_engine<unsigned long, 16807ul, 0ul, 2147483647ul>::operator() (inlined) | std::__detail::__mod<unsigned long, 2147483647ul, 16807ul, 0ul> (inlined) | std::__detail::_Mod<unsigned long, 2147483647ul, 16807ul, 0ul, true, true>::__calc (inlined) | --1.99%--std::norm<double> (inlined) std::_Norm_helper<true>::_S_do_it<double> (inlined) std::abs<double> (inlined) std::__complex_abs (inlined) ~~~~~ Signed-off-by:Milian Wolff <milian.wolff@kdab.com> Reviewed-by:

Instead of showing the (repeated) DSO name of the non-inlined frame, we now show the "(inlined)" suffix instead.

The original patch that introduced inline frame output in the various browsers used this suffix already. The new centralized approach that uses fake symbols for inlined frames was missing this approach so far. Instead of changing the symbol name itself, we only print the suffix where needed. This allows us to efficiently lookup the symbol for a given name without first having to append the suffix before the lookup. Signed-off-by:

When a callchain entry has no srcline available, we ended up comparing the instruction pointer. I consider this to be not too useful. Rather, I think we should group the entries by function name, which this patch adds. For people who want to split the data on the IP boundary, using `-g address` is the correct choice.

The inline_node structs are maintained by the new dso->inlines tree. This in turn keeps ownership of the fake symbols and srcline string representing an inline frame. This tree is sorted by address to allow quick lookups. All other entries of the symbol beside the function name are unused for inline frames. The advantage of this approach is that all existing users of the callchain API can now transparently display inlined frames without having to patch their code. Signed-off-by:

This is a preparation for the creation of real callchain entries for inlined frames. The rest of the perf code uses the srcline string. As such, using that also for the srcline API allows us to simplify some of the upcoming code. Most notably, it will allow us to cache the srcline for a given inline node and reuse it for different callchain entries. Signed-off-by:

Milian Wolff authored
This is a requirement to create real callchain entries for inlined frames. Since the list of inlines usually contains the target symbol too, i.e. the location where the frames get inlined to, we alias that symbol and reuse it as-is is. This ensures that other dependent functionality keeps working, most notably annotation of the target frames. For all other entries in the inline_list, a fake symbol is created. These are marked by new 'inlined' member which is set to true. Only those symbols are managed by the inline_list and get freed when the inline_list is deleted from within inline_node__delete.

This is mostly a preparation to enable the creation of full callchain nodes for inline frames. Such frames will reference the IP of the non-inlined frame, but hold the symbol and srcline for an inlined location. As such, we won't be able to query the srcline on-demand based on the IP alone. Instead, we will leverage the functionality provided by this patch here, and store the srcline for the inlined nodes in the new srcline member of callchain_cursor_node. Note that this patch on its own leaks the srcline, as there is no free_callchain_cursor_node or similar. A future patch will add caching of the srcline and handle deletion properly. Signed-off-by:
