Subject: [PATCH] perf: Fix looking up dwarf unwind stack info
Using perf with call graph method dwarf fails to provide backtrace support
for stripped binary even though .gnu_debuglink points to *.dbg flavor with
properly populated debug symbols.
Problem is reproduced on ARM (v7, v8), kernels 3.14.y, 4.4.y and 4.10.rc3.
Perf is configured with libunwind, and unwind dwarf support [1]. Test code
(stress_bt.c) can be found on [2].
Running (explicitly disable other unwinding methods):
$ gcc -g -o stress_bt -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-unwind-tables \
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables stress_bt.c
$ perf record -N --call-graph dwarf ./stress_bt
$ perf report
results in properly generated call graph. Stripping the binary and running
it results with missing call graph. Expected result is to have call graph:
$ gcc -g -o stress_bt -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-unwind-tables \
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables stress_bt.c
$ objcopy --only-keep-debug stress_bt stress_bt.dbg
$ objcopy --strip-debug stress_bt
$ objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=stress_bt.dbg stress_bt
$ perf record -N --call-graph dwarf ./stress_bt
$ perf report
Problem is that perf doesn't try to read symbols pointed by gnu debuglink.
Patch adds checking, and reading of the symbols from debuglink and symsrc.
Order of the check is to first check within dso, then check whether symsrc
is defined and try to read from it. Finally, debuglink is checked. Default
locations of debug files are discussed in [3] and [4]. Comments on RFC are
on [5].
