Subject: [PATCH v2] Allow user probes on versioned symbols
Symbol versioning, as in glibc, results in symbols being defined as:
<real symbol>@[@]<version>
(Note that "@@" identifies a default symbol, in case the symbol name
is repeated.)
perf is currently unable to deal with this, and is unable to create
user probes at such symbols:
--
$ nm /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 | grep pthread_create
0000000000008d30 t __pthread_create_2_1
0000000000008d30 T pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.17
$ /usr/bin/sudo perf probe -v -x /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 pthread_create
probe-definition(0): pthread_create
symbol:pthread_create file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
0 arguments
Open Debuginfo file: /usr/lib/debug/lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread-2.19.so
Try to find probe point from debuginfo.
Probe point 'pthread_create' not found.
Error: Failed to add events. Reason: No such file or directory (Code: -2)
--
One is not able to specify the fully versioned symbol, either, due to
syntactic conflicts with other uses of "@" by perf:
--
$ /usr/bin/sudo perf probe -v -x /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.17
probe-definition(0): pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.17
Semantic error :SRC@SRC is not allowed.
0 arguments
Error: Command Parse Error. Reason: Invalid argument (Code: -22)
--
The attached patch ignores versioning for default symbols, thus
allowing probes to be created for these symbols:
--
$ /usr/bin/sudo ./perf probe -x /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 pthread_create
Added new event:
probe_libpthread:pthread_create (on pthread_create in /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libpthread-2.19.so)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_libpthread:pthread_create -aR sleep 1
$ /usr/bin/sudo ./perf record -e probe_libpthread:pthread_create -aR ./test 2
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.052 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]
$ /usr/bin/sudo ./perf script
test 2915 [000] 19124.260729: probe_libpthread:pthread_create: (3fff99248d38)
test 2916 [000] 19124.260962: probe_libpthread:pthread_create: (3fff99248d38)
$ /usr/bin/sudo ./perf probe --del=probe_libpthread:pthread_create
Removed event: probe_libpthread:pthread_create

Changes in v2:
- move logic from arch__compare_symbol_names to new map__compare_symbol_names
- call through from map__compare_symbol_names to arch__compare_symbol_names
- redirect uses of arch__compare_symbol_names
- send patch to LKML
