perf tools: Fix segfault for symbol annotation on TUI

2015-01-16T20:49:29+00:00

Currently the symbol structure is allocated with symbol_conf.priv_size
to carry sideband information like annotation, map browser on TUI and
sort-by-name tree node.  So retrieving these information from symbol
needs to care about the details of such placement.

However the annotation code just assumes that the symbol is placed after
the struct annotation.  But actually there's other info between them.
So accessing those struct will lead to an undefined behavior (usually a
crash) after they write their info to the same location.

To reproduce the problem, please follow the steps below:

  1. run perf report (TUI of course) with -v option
  2. open map browser (by pressing right arrow key for any entry)
  3. search any function (by pressing '/' key and input whatever..)
  4. return to the hist browser (by pressing 'q' or left arrow key)
  5. open annotation window for the same entry (by pressing 'a' key)

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.

Combine all definitions into a common tools/include/linux/types.h and
kill the wild growth elsewhere. Move DECLARE_BITMAP to its proper
bitmap.h header.

perf annotate: Check availability of annotate when processing samples

2014-02-24T14:12:55+00:00

The TUI of perf report and top support annotation, but stdio and GTK
don't.  So it should be checked before calling hist_entry__inc_addr_
samples() to avoid wasting resources that will never be used.

perf annotate need it regardless of UI and sort keys, so the check
of whether to allocate resources should be on the tools that have
annotate as an option in the TUI, 'report' and 'top', not on the
function called by all of them.

It caused perf annotate on ppc64 to produce zero output, since the
buckets were not being allocated.

2013-12-19T14:34:19+00:00

Since there are three calls that could receive just the struct
addr_map_symbol pointer and call the symbol method.

perf tools: Separate out GTK codes to libperf-gtk.so

2013-10-09T18:55:25+00:00

Separate out GTK codes to a shared object called libperf-gtk.so.  This
time only GTK codes are built with -fPIC and libperf remains as is.  Now
run GTK hist and annotation browser using libdl.

perf tools: Remove dependency on libnewt

2013-04-01T15:23:21+00:00

Now that the map browser shares the input routine with the hists
browser, there is no need for using any libnewt routine, so remove all
traces except for honouring NO_NEWT=1 on the makefile command line as an
indication that TUI support is not needed, in fact it just sets
NO_SLANG=1.
