      perf probe: Support adding probes on offline kernel modules · 14a8fd7c
      Masami Hiramatsu authored
      
      Support adding probes on offline kernel modules. This enables
      perf-probe to trace kernel-module init functions via perf-probe.
      If user gives the path of module with -m option, perf-probe
      expects the module is offline.
      This feature works with --add, --funcs, and --vars.
      
      E.g)
       # perf probe -m /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko \
         -a "extent_io_init:5 extent_state_cache"
       Add new events:
         probe:extent_io_init (on extent_io_init:5 with extent_state_cache)
         probe:extent_io_init_1 (on extent_io_init:5 with extent_state_cache)
      
       You can now use it on all perf tools, such as:
      
               perf record -e probe:extent_io_init_1 -aR sleep 1

      Add filters support for available variable list.
      
      Default filter is "!__k???tab_*&!__crc_*" for filtering out
      automatically generated symbols.
      
      The format of filter rule is "[!]GLOBPATTERN", so you can use wild
      cards. If the filter rule starts with '!', matched variables are filter
      out.
      
      e.g.:
       # perf probe -V schedule --externs --filter=cpu*
      Available variables at schedule
              @<schedule+0>
                      cpumask_var_t   cpu_callout_mask
                      cpumask_var_t   cpu_core_map

      perf probe: Add basic module support · 469b9b88
      Masami Hiramatsu authored
      
      Add basic module probe support on perf probe. This introduces "--module
      <MODNAME>" option to perf probe for putting probes and showing lines and
      variables in the given module.
      
      Currently, this supports only probing on running modules.  Supporting off-line
      module probing is the next step.
      
      e.g.)
      [show lines]
       # ./perf probe --module drm -L drm_vblank_info
      <drm_vblank_info:0>
            0  int drm_vblank_info(struct seq_file *m, void *data)
            1  {
                      struct drm_info_node *node = (struct drm_info_node *) m->private
            3         struct drm_device *dev = node->minor->dev;
       ...
      [show vars]
       # ./perf probe --module drm -V drm_vblank_info:3
      Available variables at drm_vblank_info:3
              @<drm_vblank_info+20>
                      (unknown_type)  data
                      struct drm_info_node*   node
                      struct seq_file*        m
      [put a probe]
       # ./perf probe --module drm drm_vblank_info:3 node m
      Add new event:
        probe:drm_vblank_info (on drm_vblank_info:3 with node m)
      
      You can now use it on all perf tools, such as:
      
              perf record -e probe:drm_vblank_info -aR sleep 1
      [list probes]
       # ./perf probe -l

      perf probe: Add kernel source path option · 9ed7e1b8
      Chase Douglas authored
      
      The probe plugin requires access to the source code for some operations.  The
      source code must be in the exact same location as specified by the DWARF tags,
      but sometimes the location is an absolute path that cannot be replicated by a
      normal user. This change adds the -s|--source option to allow the user to
      specify the root of the kernel source tree.

      perf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce OPT_INCR() · c0555642
      Ian Munsie authored
      
      Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a
      bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the
      manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and
      incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a
      PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool
      and would therefore print out the usage information and
      terminate.
      
      This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool
      datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was
      intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was
      passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR
      with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is
      currently the only such example of this).
      
      I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true
      C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that
      they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to
      bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints.
      The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses
      OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN.

      perf probe: Add lazy line matching support · 2a9c8c36
      Masami Hiramatsu authored
      
      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>
                *

      perf session: Keep pointers to the vmlinux maps · de176489
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      
      So that tools such as 'perf probe' don't have to lookup
      '[kernel.kallsyms]' but instead access them directly after
      perf_session__create_kernel_maps or
      map_groups__create_kernel_maps.

      perf probe: Check whether debugfs path is correct · 96c96612

      Check whether the debugfs path is correct before executing
      a command, because perf-probe depends on debugfs.

      perf probe: Fix to show which probe point is not found · 7ef17aaf
      Masami Hiramatsu authored
      
      Fix perf probe to show which probe point is not found.
      With out this patch, it shows just "No probe point found."
      This doesn't help users if they specify several probes.
      e.g.
      
       # perf probe -f --add schedule --add test
        Fatal: No probe point found.
      
      This patch makes error message more helpful as below.
      
       # perf probe --add schedule --add test
        Fatal: Probe point 'test' not found. - probe not added.
