[PATCH 3/3] perf, tools, script: Add support for printing assembler
From: Andi Kleen
Date: Mon Feb 29 2016 - 18:05:29 EST
From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
When dumping PT traces with perf script it is very useful to see the
assembler for each sample, so that it is easily possible to follow
the control flow.
As using objdump is difficult and inefficient from perf script this
patch uses the udis86 library to implement assembler output.
The library can be downloaded from http://udis86.sourceforge.net/
The library is probed as an external dependency in the usual way. Then perf
script calls into it when needed, and handles callbacks to resolve
symbols.
% perf record -e intel_pt//u true
% perf script -F sym,symoff,ip,asm --itrace=i0ns | head
7fc7188b4190 _start+0x0 mov %rsp, %rdi
7fc7188b4193 _start+0x3 call _dl_start
7fc7188b7710 _dl_start+0x0 push %rbp
7fc7188b7711 _dl_start+0x1 mov %rsp, %rbp
7fc7188b7714 _dl_start+0x4 push %r15
7fc7188b7716 _dl_start+0x6 push %r14
7fc7188b7718 _dl_start+0x8 push %r13
7fc7188b771a _dl_start+0xa push %r12
7fc7188b771c _dl_start+0xc mov %rdi, %r12
7fc7188b771f _dl_start+0xf push %rbx
Current issues:
- Some jump references do not get resolved to symbols.
- udis86 release does not support STAC/CLAC, which are used in the kernel,
but there is a pending patch for it.
