cover perf report: Show inline stack

It would be useful for perf to support a mode to query the inline stack for callgraph addresses. This would simplify finding the right code in code that does a lot of inlining.

For example, the c code:

static inline void f3(void)

{
        int i;
        for (i = 0; i < 1000;) {

                if(i%2)
                        i++;
                else
                        i++;
        }
        printf("hello f3\n");   /* D */
}

/* < CALLCHAIN: f2 <- f1 > */
static inline void f2(void)

{
        int i;
        for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
                f3();   /* C */
        }
}

/* < CALLCHAIN: f1 <- main > */
static inline void f1(void)

{
        int i;
        for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
                f2();   /* B */
        }
}

/* < CALLCHAIN: main <- TOP > */
int main()

{
        struct timeval tv;
        time_t start, end;

        gettimeofday(&tv, NULL);
        start = end = tv.tv_sec;
        while((end - start) < 5) {
                f1();   /* A */
                gettimeofday(&tv, NULL);
                end = tv.tv_sec;
        }
        return 0;
}

The printed inline stack is:

0.05% test2 test2 [.] main

       |
       ---/home/perf-dev/lck-2867/test/test2.c:27 (inline)
          /home/perf-dev/lck-2867/test/test2.c:35 (inline)
          /home/perf-dev/lck-2867/test/test2.c:45 (inline)
          /home/perf-dev/lck-2867/test/test2.c:61 (inline)

I tag A/B/C/D in above c code to indicate the source line, actually the inline stack is equal to:

0.05% test2 test2 [.] main

       |
       ---D
          C
          B
          A

PATCH 1/4 perf report: Find the inline stack for a given address

It would be useful for perf to support a mode to query the inline stack for a given callgraph address. This would simplify finding the right code in code that does a lot of inlining.

The srcline.c has contained the code which supports to translate the address to filename:line_nr. This patch just extends the function to let it support getting the inline stacks.

The results (filename:line_nr) would be saved in a list and returned to the caller.

Re: [PATCH v1 1/4] perf report: Find the inline stack for a given address

It would be useful for perf to support a mode to query the inline stack for a given callgraph address. This would simplify finding the right code in code that does a lot of inlining.

The srcline.c has contained the code which supports to translate the address to filename:line_nr. This patch just extends the function to let it support getting the inline stacks.

The results (filename:line_nr) would be saved in a list and returned to the caller.

You're doing multiple things in this changeset, which makes reviewing harder than it could be, so please consider breaking it in at least:

1. introduce dso_name_get() out of existing code and use it, renaming it to dso__name(), as "_get()" is usually reserved for refcount operations (see dso__get(), thread__get(), etc, for instance), just like with the kernel sources.

2. introduce the inline_list thing and name the functions handling it using that prefix, and as well separate the method name from the struct name using __, as done elsewhere in tools/perf/, i.e. that function:

ilist_apend()

should be renamed to:

inline_list__append()

Better, follow the list_head model and instead call it:

inline_list__add_tail()

But as it also allocates space for the node, maybe inline_list__append() is appropriate :-\

Perhaps have:

and jump to here in those two cases above? That after renaming free_inline_node(node) to inline_node__delete(node) to follow convention used in most parts of tools/perf/.

PATCH 2/4 perf report: Create a new option "--inline"

In reply to Jin Yao

It takes some time to look for inline stack for callgraph addresses. So it provides a new option "--inline" to let user decide if enable this feature.

PATCH 3/4 perf report: Show inline stack in stdio mode

In reply to Jin Yao

If the address belongs to an inlined function, the source information back to the first non-inlined function will be printed.

For example:

0.05% test2 test2 [.] main

       |
       ---/home/jinyao/perf-dev/test/test2.c:27 (inline)
          /home/jinyao/perf-dev/test/test2.c:35 (inline)

          /home/jinyao/perf-dev/test/test2.c:61 (inline)

The tag "inline" indicates these items are the entries in inline stack.

Any comments on this patch series?

It would be useful for perf to support a mode to query the inline stack for callgraph addresses. This would simplify finding the right code in code that does a lot of inlining.

For example, the c code:

static inline void f3(void)

{
         int i;
         for (i = 0; i < 1000;) {

                 if(i%2)
                         i++;
                 else
                         i++;
         }
         printf("hello f3\n");   /* D */
}

/* < CALLCHAIN: f2 <- f1 > */
static inline void f2(void)

{
         int i;
         for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
                 f3();   /* C */
         }
}

/* < CALLCHAIN: f1 <- main > */
static inline void f1(void)

{
         int i;
         for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
                 f2();   /* B */
         }
}

/* < CALLCHAIN: main <- TOP > */
int main()

{
         struct timeval tv;
         time_t start, end;

         gettimeofday(&tv, NULL);
         start = end = tv.tv_sec;
         while((end - start) < 5) {
                 f1();   /* A */
                 gettimeofday(&tv, NULL);
                 end = tv.tv_sec;
         }
         return 0;
}

The printed inline stack is:

0.05% test2 test2 [.] main

        |
        ---/home/perf-dev/lck-2867/test/test2.c:27 (inline)

           /home/perf-dev/lck-2867/test/test2.c:61 (inline)

I tag A/B/C/D in above c code to indicate the source line, actually the inline stack is equal to:
