Subject: [PATCH V2 8/9] tools/perf: Add support to find global register variables using find_data_type_global_reg
There are cases where define a global register variable and associate it
with a specified register. Example, in powerpc, two registers are
defined to represent variable:
1. r13: represents local_paca
register struct paca_struct *local_paca asm("r13");
2. r1: represents stack_pointer
register void *__stack_pointer asm("r1");
These regs are present in dwarf debug as DW_OP_reg as part of variables
in the cu_die (compile unit). These are not present in die search done
in the list of nested scopes since these are global register variables.
Example for local_paca represented by r13:
<<>>
<1><18dc6b4>: Abbrev Number: 128 (DW_TAG_variable)
<18dc6b6> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x3861): local_paca
<18dc6ba> DW_AT_decl_file : 48
<18dc6bb> DW_AT_decl_line : 36
<18dc6bc> DW_AT_decl_column : 30
<18dc6bd> DW_AT_type : <0x18dc6c3>
<18dc6c1> DW_AT_external : 1
<18dc6c1> DW_AT_location : 1 byte block: 5d (DW_OP_reg13 (r13))
<1><18dc6c3>: Abbrev Number: 3 (DW_TAG_pointer_type)
<18dc6c4> DW_AT_byte_size : 8
<18dc6c4> DW_AT_type : <0x18dc353>
Where DW_AT_type : <0x18dc6c3> further points to :
<1><18dc6c3>: Abbrev Number: 3 (DW_TAG_pointer_type)
<18dc6c4> DW_AT_byte_size : 8
<18dc6c4> DW_AT_type : <0x18dc353>
which belongs to:
<1><18dc353>: Abbrev Number: 67 (DW_TAG_structure_type)
<18dc354> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x56cd): paca_struct
<18dc358> DW_AT_byte_size : 2944
<18dc35a> DW_AT_alignment : 128
<18dc35b> DW_AT_decl_file : 48
<18dc35c> DW_AT_decl_line : 61
<18dc35d> DW_AT_decl_column : 8
<18dc35d> DW_AT_sibling : <0x18dc6b4>
<<>>
Similar is case with "r1".
<<>>
<1><18dd772>: Abbrev Number: 129 (DW_TAG_variable)
<18dd774> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x11ba): current_stack_pointer
<18dd778> DW_AT_decl_file : 51
<18dd779> DW_AT_decl_line : 1468
<18dd77b> DW_AT_decl_column : 24
<18dd77c> DW_AT_type : <0x18da5cd>
<18dd780> DW_AT_external : 1
<18dd780> DW_AT_location : 1 byte block: 51 (DW_OP_reg1 (r1))
where 18da5cd is:
<1><18da5cd>: Abbrev Number: 47 (DW_TAG_base_type)
<18da5ce> DW_AT_byte_size : 8
<18da5cf> DW_AT_encoding : 7 (unsigned)
<18da5d0> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x55c7): long unsigned int
<<>>
To identify data type for these two special cases, iterate over
variables in the CU die (Compile Unit) and match it with the register.
If the variable is a base type, ie die_get_real_type will return NULL
here, set offset to zero. With the changes, data type for "paca_struct"
and "long unsigned int" for r1 is identified.
Snippet from ./perf report -s type,type_off
12.85% long unsigned int long unsigned int +0 (no field)
4.68% struct paca_struct struct paca_struct +2312 (__current)
4.57% struct paca_struct struct paca_struct +2354 (irq_soft_mask)
