      perf probe: Fix probe_point buffer overrun · 594087a0
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Fix probe_point array-size overrun problem. In some cases (e.g.
      inline function), one user-specified probe-point can be
      translated to many probe address, and it overruns pre-defined
      array-size. This also removes redundant MAX_PROBES macro
      definition.

      perf probe: Add lazy line matching support · 2a9c8c36
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      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.

      perf probe: Support --line option to show probable source-code lines · 631c9def

      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>

         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);

         1094                 rq->hrtick_csd_pending = 1;

      perf/probes: Exit searching after finding target function · 8030c5f5
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Exit searching after finding real (not-inlined) function,
      because there should be no same symbol in that CU.

      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Use die() for exiting perf-probe with errors. This replaces
      perror_exit(), msg_exit() and fprintf()+exit() with die(), and
      uses die() in semantic_error().
      
      This also renames 'die' local variables to 'dw_die' for avoiding
      name confliction.

      perf: Add perf probe subcommand, a kprobe-event setup helper · 4ea42b18
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Add perf probe subcommand that implements a kprobe-event setup helper
      to the perf command.
      This allows user to define kprobe events using C expressions (C line
      numbers, C function names, and C local variables).
      
      Usage
      -----
       perf probe [<options>] -P 'PROBEDEF' [-P 'PROBEDEF' ...]
      
          -k, --vmlinux <file>  vmlinux/module pathname
          -P, --probe <p|r:[GRP/]NAME FUNC[+OFFS][@src]|@src:LINE [ARG ...]>
                                probe point definition, where
      		p:	kprobe probe
      		r:	kretprobe probe
      		GRP:	Group name (optional)
      		NAME:	Event name
      		FUNC:	Function name
      		OFFS:	Offset from function entry (in byte)
      		SRC:	Source code path
      		LINE:	Line number
      		ARG:	Probe argument (local variable name or
      			kprobe-tracer argument format is supported.)
      
      Changes in v4:
       - Add _GNU_SOURCE macro for strndup().
      
      Changes in v3:
       - Remove -r option because perf always be used for online kernel.
       - Check malloc/calloc results.
      
      Changes in v2:
       - Check synthesized string length.
       - Rename perf kprobe to perf probe.
       - Use spaces for separator and update usage comment.
       - Check error paths in parse_probepoint().
       - Check optimized-out variables.
