[PATCH 3/4] perf dwarf-aux: Check variable address range properly
From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Fri Apr 12 2024 - 14:33:54 EST
In match_var_offset(), it just checked the end address of the variable
with the given offset because it assumed the register holds a pointer
to the data type and the offset starts from the base.
But I found some cases that the stack pointer (rsp = reg7) register is
used to pointer a stack variable while the frame base is maintained by a
different register (rbp = reg6). In that case, it cannot simply use the
stack pointer as it cannot guarantee that it points to the frame base.
So it needs to check the both boundaries of the variable location.
Before:
-----------------------------------------------------------
find data type for 0x7c(reg7) at tcp_getsockopt+0xb62
CU for net/ipv4/tcp.c (die:0x7b5f516)
frame base: cfa=0 fbreg=6
no pointer or no type
check variable "tss" failed (die: 0x7b95801)
variable location: base reg7, offset=0x110
type='struct scm_timestamping_internal' size=0x30 (die:0x7b8c126)
So the current code just checks register number for the non-PC and
non-FB registers and assuming it has offset 0. But this variable has
offset 0x110 so it should not match to this.
After:
-----------------------------------------------------------
find data type for 0x7c(reg7) at tcp_getsockopt+0xb62
CU for net/ipv4/tcp.c (die:0x7b5f516)
frame base: cfa=0 fbreg=6
no pointer or no type
check variable "zc" failed (die: 0x7b9580a)
variable location: base=reg7, offset=0x40
type='struct tcp_zerocopy_receive' size=0x40 (die:7b947f4)
Now it find the correct variable "zc". It was located at reg7 + 0x40
and the size if 0x40 which means it should cover [0x40, 0x80). And the
access was for reg7 + 0x7c so it found the right one. But it still
failed to use the variable and it would be handled in the next patch.
