Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo b448c4b613 perf probe: Fix some error exit paths
That could leave filedescriptors open and leak memory. Also stop using
xmalloc, use malloc and handle results just like other error cases in
the same routine that used it.

Ian Munsie cd932c5939 perf: Move arch specific code into separate arch directory
The perf userspace tool included some architecture specific code to map
registers from the DWARF register number into the names used by the regs
and stack access API.

This moves the architecture specific code out into a separate
arch/x86 directory along with the infrastructure required to use it.

Masami Hiramatsu de1439d8a5 perf probe: Support DW_OP_plus_uconst in DW_AT_data_member_location

Masami Hiramatsu d3b63d7ae0 perf probe: Fix a bug that --line range can be overflow
Since line_finder.lno_s/e are signed int but line_range.start/end
are unsigned int, it is possible to be overflow when converting
line_range->start/end to line_finder->lno_s/e.
This changes line_range.start/end and line_list.line to signed int
and adds overflow checks when setting line_finder.lno_s/e.

Masami Hiramatsu a34a985499 perf probe: Support DW_OP_call_frame_cfa in debuginfo
When building kernel without CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, gcc uses
CFA (canonical frame address) for frame base. With this patch,
perf probe just gets CFI (call frame information) from debuginfo
and search corresponding CFA from the CFI. IOW, this allows
perf probe works correctly on the kernel without CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER.

<Before>
 ./perf probe -fn sched_slice:12 lw.weight
  Fatal: DW_OP 156 is not supported.
              (^^^ DW_OP_call_frame_cfa)

<After>

  probe:sched_slice    (on sched_slice:12 with weight=lw.weight)

Masami Hiramatsu 2a9c8c3609 perf probe: Add lazy line matching support
Add lazy line matching support for specifying new probes.
This also changes the syntax of perf probe a bit. Now
perf probe accepts one of below probe event definitions.

1) Define event based on function name
 [EVENT=]FUNC[@SRC][:RLN|+OFF|%return|;PTN] [ARG ...]

2) Define event based on source file with line number
 [EVENT=]SRC:ALN [ARG ...]

3) Define event based on source file with lazy pattern
 [EVENT=]SRC;PTN [ARG ...]

- New lazy matching pattern(PTN) follows ';' (semicolon). And it
  must be put the end of the definition.
- So, @SRC is no longer the part which must be put at the end
  of the definition.

Note that ';' (semicolon) can be interpreted as the end of
a command by the shell. This means that you need to quote it.
(anyway you will need to quote the lazy pattern itself too,
because it may contains other sensitive characters, like
'[',']' etc.).

Lazy matching
-------------
The lazy line matching is similar to glob matching except
ignoring spaces in both of pattern and target.

e.g.
'a=*' can matches 'a=b', 'a = b', 'a == b' and so on.

This provides some sort of flexibility and robustness to
probe point definitions against minor code changes.
(for example, actual 10th line of schedule() can be changed
 easily by modifying schedule(), but the same line matching
 'rq=cpu_rq*' may still exist.)

Changes in v3:
 - Cast Dwarf_Addr to uintmax_t for printf-formats.

Changes in v2:
 - Cast Dwarf_Addr to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

Masami Hiramatsu 161a26b0c2 perf probe: Check function address range strictly in line finder
Check (inlined) function address range strictly for
improving output of probe-able lines of inline functions.

Without this change, perf probe --line <function> sometimes
showed other inline function bodies too, because it didn't
filter out inlined functions.

Masami Hiramatsu 804b36068e perf probe: Use elfutils-libdw for analyzing debuginfo
Newer gcc introduces newer & richer debuginfo, and only libdw
in elfutils project can support it. So perf probe moves onto
elfutils-libdw from libdwarf.

Changes in v3:
 - Cast Dwarf_Addr/Dwarf_Word to uintmax_t for printf-formats.
 - Recover a sign-prefix which was removed in v2 by mistake.

Changes in v2:
 - Fix a type-casting bug in Makefile.
 - Cast Dwarf_Addr/Dwarf_Word to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

Masami Hiramatsu 631c9def80 perf probe: Support --line option to show probable source-code lines
Add --line option to support showing probable source-code lines.

  perf probe --line SRC:LN[-LN|+NUM]
   or
  perf probe --line FUNC[:LN[-LN|+NUM]]

This option shows source-code with line number if the line can
be probed. Lines without line number (and blue color) means that
the line can not be probed, because debuginfo doesn't have the
information of those lines.

The argument specifies the range of lines, "source.c:100-120"
shows lines between 100th to l20th in source.c file. And
"func:10+20" shows 20 lines from 10th line of func function.

e.g.
 # ./perf probe --line kernel/sched.c:1080
 <kernel/sched.c:1080>
          *
          * called with rq->lock held and irqs disabled
          */
         static void hrtick_start(struct rq *rq, u64 delay)
         {
                struct hrtimer *timer = &rq->hrtick_timer;
   1086         ktime_t time = ktime_add_ns(timer->base->get_time(), delay);

                hrtimer_set_expires(timer, time);

   1090         if (rq == this_rq()) {
   1091                 hrtimer_restart(timer);
   1092         } else if (!rq->hrtick_csd_pending) {
   1093                 __smp_call_function_single(cpu_of(rq), &rq->hrtick_csd,
   1094                 rq->hrtick_csd_pending = 1;

If you specifying function name, this shows function-relative
line number.

 # ./perf probe --line schedule
 <schedule:0>
         asmlinkage void __sched schedule(void)
      1  {
                struct task_struct *prev, *next;
                unsigned long *switch_count;
                struct rq *rq;
                int cpu;

         need_resched:
                preempt_disable();
      9         cpu = smp_processor_id();
     10         rq = cpu_rq(cpu);
     11         rcu_sched_qs(cpu);
     12         prev = rq->curr;
     13         switch_count = &prev->nivcsw;
