Humm, I'm testing and invetigating this issue and by looking at the
backtraces I see that it is just on the first entry that the getaddrinfo
isn't present, i.e. now there are two inet_pton() calls, one of them
doesn't come from getaddrinfo():
[root@quaco ~]# cat /tmp/perf.script.IUC
ping 623883 [006] 265438.471610: probe_libc:inet_pton: (7f32bcf314c0)
1314c0 __GI___inet_pton+0x0 (/usr/lib64/libc.so.6)
29510 __libc_start_call_main+0x80 (/usr/lib64/libc.so.6)
ping 623883 [006] 265438.471664: probe_libc:inet_pton: (7f32bcf314c0)
1314c0 __GI___inet_pton+0x0 (/usr/lib64/libc.so.6)
fa6c6 getaddrinfo+0x126 (/usr/lib64/libc.so.6)
491e [unknown] (/usr/bin/ping)
The above is the temp file for the perf script output from the collected
perf.data file See the second entry? Its as we expect:
[root@quaco ~]# cat /tmp/expected.aT6
ping[][0-9 \.:]+probe_libc:inet_pton: \([[:xdigit:]]+\)
.*inet_pton\+0x[[:xdigit:]]+[[:space:]]\(/usr/lib64/libc.so.6|inlined\)$
getaddrinfo\+0x[[:xdigit:]]+[[:space:]]\(/usr/lib64/libc.so.6\)$
.*(\+0x[[:xdigit:]]+|\[unknown\])[[:space:]]\(.*/bin/ping.*\)$
[root@quaco ~]#
But if I just ignore that first one and match against the second event
instance:
[root@quaco ~]# perf test inet_pton
90: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : Ok
[root@quaco ~]# perf test -v inet_pton
90: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 626199
ping 626222 [007] 266979.123047: probe_libc:inet_pton_1: (7f0650d314c0)
1314c0 __GI___inet_pton+0x0 (/usr/lib64/libc.so.6)
fa6c6 getaddrinfo+0x126 (/usr/lib64/libc.so.6)
491e n (/usr/bin/ping)
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping: Ok
[root@quaco ~]#
So, can you try with the following patch in your s/390 system?
I wish 'perf script' had a --skip option that allowed us to ask for just
the second event, not having that I did a trick with tac + grep -m1 -B :-)
We can try to revisit your approach for the next merge window, as at
this point, for 6.2 we want for fixes to be as minimal as possible.
It works for me on Fedora 36, glibc 2.35-20.fc36, where it was failing,
I'll now try on a arm64 machine, thanks.
