Subject: [PATCH 16/16] perf probe: Support probing at absolute addresses
From: Wang Nan <wangnan0@...wei.com>
It should be useful to allow 'perf probe' probe at absolute offsets of a
target.
For example, when (u)probing at a instruction of a shared object in an
embedded system where debuginfo is not available but we know the offset
of that instruction by manually digging.
This patch enables following perf probe command syntax:
# perf probe +0xffffffff811e6615
And
# perf probe /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so +0xeb860
In the above example, we don't need a anchor symbol, so it is possible
to compute absolute addresses using other methods and then use 'perf
probe' to create the probing points.
Committer note:
One can as well specify a name, so that the probe doesn't get assigned a
generic one starting with abs_, i.e. if we use as described above we
get:
[root@zoo ~]# readelf -sW /lib64/libc-2.20.so | grep -w malloc
1175: 00000000000830f0 300 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 12 malloc@@GLIBC_2.2.5
813: 0000000000000000 0 FILE LOCAL DEFAULT ABS malloc.c
5276: 00000000000830f0 300 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 12 malloc
[root@zoo ~]#
[root@zoo ~]# perf probe /lib64/libc-2.20.so +0x830f0
Added new event:
probe_libc:abs_830f0 (on 0x830f0 in /lib64/libc-2.20.so)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_libc:abs_830f0 -aR sleep 1
[root@zoo ~]#
[root@zoo ~]# perf probe -l
probe_libc:abs_830f0 (on __libc_malloc@...bc-2.20/malloc/malloc.c in /lib64/libc-2.20.so)
[root@zoo ~]#
Whereas if we assign it a name it gets more manageable:
[root@zoo ~]# perf probe /lib64/libc-2.20.so malloc=+0x830f0
Added new event:
probe_libc:malloc (on 0x830f0 in /lib64/libc-2.20.so)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1
[root@zoo ~]# perf probe -l
probe_libc:malloc (on __libc_malloc@...bc-2.20/malloc/malloc.c in /lib64/libc-2.20.so)
[root@zoo ~]#
Both, of course, will produce the same results, and we can use a
non canonical name, if the need arises:
[root@zoo ~]# perf probe /lib64/libc-2.20.so memory_allocation=+0x830f0
Added new event:
probe_libc:memory_allocation (on 0x830f0 in /lib64/libc-2.20.so)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_libc:memory_allocation -aR sleep 1
[root@zoo ~]# perf probe -l
probe_libc:memory_allocation (on __libc_malloc@...bc-2.20/malloc/malloc.c in /lib64/libc-2.20.so)
[root@zoo ~]#
