2015-01-16perf test: Fix dwarf unwind using libunwind.Wang Nan
Perf tool fails to unwind user stack if the event raises in a shared object. This patch improves tests/dwarf-unwind.c to demonstrate the problem by utilizing commonly used glibc function "bsearch". If perf is not statically linked, the testcase will try to unwind a mixed call trace. By debugging libunwind I found that there is a bug in unwind-libunwind: it always passes 0 as segbase to libunwind, cause libunwind unable to locate debug_frame entry fir first level ip address (I add some more debugging output into libunwind to make things clear): >_Uarm_dwarf_find_debug_frame: start_ip = 10be98, end_ip = 10c2a4 >_Uarm_dwarf_find_debug_frame: found debug_frame table `/lib/libc-2.18.so': segbase=0x0, len=7, gp=0x0, table_data=0x449388 >_Uarm_dwarf_search_unwind_table: call lookup:ip = b6cd3bcc, segbase = 0, rel_ip = b6cd3bcc >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = bcf18 (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 6d314 (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 33d0c (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) ... >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 15d0c (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 15c40 (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) >_Uarm_dwarf_search_unwind_table: IP b6cd3bcc inside range b6c12000-b6d4c000, but no explicit unwind info found >put_rs_cache: unmasking signals/interrupts and releasing lock >_Uarm_dwarf_step: returning -10 >_Uarm_step: dwarf_step()=-10 This patch passes map->start as segbase to dwarf_find_debug_frame(), so di will be initialized correctly. In addition, dso and executable are different when setting segbase. This patch first check whether the elf is executable, and pass segbase only for shared object.

2014-10-15perf report: Set callchain_param.record_mode for future useNamhyung Kim
Normally the callchain_param.record_mode is used only for record path. But as it might need to prepare something for dwarf unwinding, setup this info for perf report too.

2014-06-09Revert "perf: Disable PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 support"Don Zickus
This reverts commit 3090ffb5a2515990182f3f55b0688a7817325488. Re-enable the mmap2 interface as we will have a user soon. Since things have changed since perf disabled mmap2, small tweaks to the revert had to be done: o commit 9d4ecc88 forced (n!=8) to become (n<7) o a new libunwind test needed updating to use mmap2 interface Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1401461382-209586-1-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>

2014-02-18perf tests x86: Add dwarf unwind testJiri Olsa
Adding dwarf unwind test, that setups live machine data over the perf test thread and does the remote unwind. At this moment this test fails due to bug in the max_stack processing in unwind__get_entries function. This is fixed in following patch. Need to use -fno-optimize-sibling-calls for test compilation, otherwise 'krava_*' function calls are optimized into jumps and ommited from the stack unwind. So far it's enabled only for x86.
