perf tools: Don't include terminal handling headers in util.h

2017-04-19T16:01:53+00:00

Continuing the disentanglement, mostly the TUI needs CTRL(c), that is
in sys/ttydefaults.h and term.c needs the termios headers.

And term.h needs to be added to a few places too.

perf tools: Add include where ARRAY_SIZE() is used

2017-04-19T16:01:44+00:00

To pave the way for further cleanups where linux/kernel.h may stop being
included in some header.

perf annotate: Fix jump target outside of function address range

2016-12-15T19:25:46+00:00

If jump target is outside of function range, perf is not handling it
correctly. Especially when target address is lesser than function start
address, target offset will be negative. But, target address declared to
be unsigned, converts negative number into 2's complement. See below
example. Here target of 'jumpq' instruction at 34cf8 is 34ac0 which is
lesser than function start address(34cf0).

        34ac0 - 34cf0 = -0x230 = 0xfffffffffffffdd0

Objdump output:

  0000000000034cf0 <__sigaction>:
  __GI___sigaction():
    34cf0: lea    -0x20(%rdi),%eax

perf annotate: Show invalid jump offset in error message

2016-11-25T18:56:34+00:00

To help in debugging when the wrong offset is being used, like in:

       │13d98: ↓ jne    13dd1 

That is the full line from objdump, and it seems what should be used is
13dd1, not 28e1.

perf annotate: Remove duplicate 'name' field from disasm_line

2016-11-25T13:24:16+00:00

The disasm_line::name field is always equal to ins::name, being used
just to locate the instruction's ins_ops from the per-arch instructions
table.

Eliminate this duplication, nuking that field and instead make
ins__find() return an ins_ops, store it in disasm_line::ins.ops, and
keep just in disasm_line::ins.name what was in disasm_line::name, this
way we end up not keeping a reference to entries in the per-arch
instructions table.

This in turn will help supporting multiple ways to manage the per-arch
instructions table, allowing resorting that array, for instance, when
the entries will move after references to its addresses were made. The
same problem is avoided when one grows the array with realloc.

So architectures simply keeping a constant array will work as well as
architectures building the table using regular expressions or other
logic that involves resorting the table.

perf annotate: Start supporting cross arch annotation

2016-11-17T20:12:50+00:00

Introduce a 'struct arch', where arch specific stuff will live, starting
with objdump's choice of comment delimitation character, that is '#' in
x86 while a ';' in arm.

This has some bits and pieces from a patch submitted by Ravi.

perf symbols: Remove symbol_filter_t machinery

2016-09-05T14:14:50+00:00

We're not using it anymore, few users were, but we really could do
without it, simplify lots of functions by removing it.

perf annotate: Introduce strerror for handling symbol__disassemble() errors

2016-08-01T21:18:16+00:00

We were just using pr_error() which makes it difficult for non stdio UIs
to provide errors using its widgets, as they need to somehow catch what
was passed to pr_error().

Fix it by introducing a __strerror() interface like the ones used
elsewhere, for instance target__strerror().

This is just the initial step, more work will be done, but first some
error handling bugs noticed while working on this need to be dealt with.

perf annotate: Rename symbolannotate() to symboldisassemble()

2016-08-01T20:06:46+00:00

This function will not annotate anything, it will just disassembly the
given map->dso and symbol.

It currently does this by parsing the output of 'objdump --disassemble',
but this could conceivably be done using a library or an offshot of
the kernel's instruction decoder (arch/x86/lib/inat.c), etc.
