[PATCH v2 2/3] perf unwind: fix libunwind when tid != pid

From: John Keeping
Date: Thu Aug 15 2019 - 06:02:09 EST


Commit e5adfc3e7e77 ("perf map: Synthesize maps only for thread group
leader") changed the recording side so that we no longer get mmap events
for threads other than the thread group leader (when synthesising these
events for threads which exist before perf is started).

When a file recorded after this change is loaded, the lack of mmap
records mean that unwinding is not set up for any other threads.

This can be seen in a simple record/report scenario:

perf record --call-graph=dwarf -t $TID
perf report

If $TID is a process ID then the report will show call graphs, but if
$TID is a secondary thread the output is as if --call-graph=none was
specified.

Following the rationale in that commit, move the libunwind fields into
struct map_groups and update the libunwind functions to take this
instead of the struct thread. This is only required for
unwind__finish_access which must now be called from map_groups__delete
and the others are changed for symmetry.

Note that unwind__get_entries keeps the thread argument since it is
required for symbol lookup and the libdw unwind provider uses the thread
ID.

Fixes: e5adfc3e7e77 ("perf map: Synthesize maps only for thread group leader")
