perf annotate: Allow annotation for decompressed kernel modules

Decompressing kernel module file for objdump command if needed.
Annotation commands now display annotation for compressed kernel
modules.

perf annotate: Fix fallback to unparsed disassembler line

2015-03-05T18:27:28+00:00

When annotating source/disasm lines the perf tools parse the output of
objdump, trying to provide augmented output that allows navigating
jumps, calls, etc.

But when a line output by objdump can't be parsed the annotation code
falls back to just presenting the unparsed line.

When fixing a leak in the 0fb9f2aab738 commit ("perf annotate: Fix
memory leaks in LOCK handling") we failed to take that into account and
instead tried to free one of the data structures that should be freed
only when successfully allocated, oops, segfault.

There was a change in the way the objdump output for lock prefixed
instructions is formatted that lead the relevant parser to fail to grok
it.

At least RHEL7 works ok, but Fedora 20 segfaults.

Fix it by making the ins__delete() destructor work like the most basic
destructor: free().

Namely make it accept a NULL pointer and when handling it just do
nothing.

Further investigation is needed to figure out the nature of the objdump
output change so as to make the parser grok it.

perf annotate: Fix memory leaks in LOCK handling

2015-01-21T13:05:32+00:00

The lock prefix handling fails to free the strdup()'d name as well as
the fields allocated by the instruction parsing.

perf annotate: Handle ins parsing failures

2015-01-21T13:05:17+00:00

Don't use the ins's ->sncprintf() if the parsing failed.

For example, this fixes the display of "imul %edx".  Without this patch:

       |      imul   (null),(null)

After this patch:

       |      imul   %edx

perf callchain: Make get_srcline fall back to sym+offset

2014-11-24T21:03:47+00:00

When the source line is not found fall back to sym + offset.  This is
generally much more useful than a raw address.

For this we need to pass in the symbol from the caller.

For some callers it's awkward to compute, so we stay at the old
behaviour.

perf annotate: Support source line numbers in annotate

2014-11-19T15:33:48+00:00

With srcline key/sort'ing it's useful to have line numbers in the
annotate window. This patch implements this.

Use objdump -l to request the line numbers and save them in the line
structure. Then the browser displays them for source lines.

The line numbers are not displayed by default, but can be toggled on
with 'k'

There is one unfortunate problem with this setup. For lines not
containing source and which are outside functions objdump -l reports
line numbers off by a few: it always reports the first line number in
the next function even for lines that are outside the function.

I haven't found a nice way to detect/correct this. Probably objdump has
to be fixed.

See https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16433

The line numbers are still useful even with these problems, as most are
correct and the ones which are not are nearby.

v2: Fix help text. Handle (discriminator...) output in objdump.
Left align the line numbers.

perf tools: Fix annotation with kcore

2014-11-19T15:33:47+00:00

Patch "perf tools: Fix build-id matching on vmlinux" breaks annotation
with kcore.  The problem is that symbol__annotate() first gets the
filename based on the build-id which was previously not set.

This patch provides a quick fix, however there should probably be only
one way to determine the filename. e.g.  symbol__annotate() should use
the same way as dso__data_fd().

perf symbols: Make sym->end be the first address after the symbol range

2014-10-14T20:50:58+00:00

To follow vm_area_struct->vm_end convention.

By adhering to the convention that ->end is the first address outside
the symbol's range we can do things like:

	sym->end = start + len;
	len = sym->end - sym->start;

This is also now the convention used for struct map->end, fixing some
off-by-one bugs.
