perf probe: Fix wrong register name for arm64

2017-01-26T14:42:43Z

The register name of arm64 architecture is x0-x31 not r0-r31, this patch changes this typo. Before this patch: # perf probe --definition 'sys_write count' p:probe/sys_write _text+1502872 count=%r2:s64 # echo 'p:probe/sys_write _text+1502872 count=%r2:s64' > \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events Parse error at argument[0]. (-22) After this patch: # perf probe --definition 'sys_write count' p:probe/sys_write _text+1502872 count=%x2:s64 # echo 'p:probe/sys_write _text+1502872 count=%x2:s64' > \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events # echo 1 >/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/probe/enable # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace ... sh-422 [000] d... 650.495930: sys_write: (SyS_write+0x0/0xc8) count=22 sh-422 [000] d... 651.102389: sys_write: (SyS_write+0x0/0xc8) count=26 sh-422 [000] d... 651.358653: sys_write: (SyS_write+0x0/0xc8) count=86 Signed-off-by: He Kuang Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu Acked-by: Will Deacon Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Bintian Wang Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170124103015.1936-2-hekuang@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf probe: Support probing on offline cross-arch binary

2016-09-01T15:41:09Z

Support probing on offline cross-architecture binary by adding getting the target machine arch from ELF and choose correct register string for the machine. Here is an example: ----- $ perf probe --vmlinux=./vmlinux-arm --definition 'do_sys_open $params' p:probe/do_sys_open do_sys_open+0 dfd=%r5:s32 filename=%r1:u32 flags=%r6:s32 mode=%r3:u16 ----- Here, we can get probe/do_sys_open from above and append it to to the target machine's tracing/kprobe_events file in the tracefs mountput, usually /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events (or /sys/kernel/tracing/kprobe_events).

perf tools: Add ARM64 perf_regs_load to support libunwind and enable testing

2015-05-29T15:43:40Z

Newest libunwind does support ARM64, and perf is able to utilize it also. This patch enables the perf test dwarf unwind for arm64.

perf tools ARM64: Wire up perf_regs and unwind support

2014-04-29T13:31:19Z

This patch hooks in the perf_regs and libunwind code for ARM64. The tools/perf/arch/arm64 is created; it contains the arch specific code for DWARF unwinding.
