scripts/faddr2line: Fix regression in name resolution on ppc64le

2022-11-16T09:42:10+00:00

Commit 1d1a0e7c5100 ("scripts/faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures") can cause faddr2line to fail on ppc64le on some distributions, while it works fine on other distributions. The failure can be attributed to differences in the readelf output. $ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux find_busiest_group+0x00 no match for find_busiest_group+0x00 On ppc64le, readelf adds the localentry tag before the symbol name on some distributions, and adds the localentry tag after the symbol name on other distributions. This problem has been discussed previously: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20191211160133.GB4580@calabresa/ This problem can be overcome by filtering out the localentry tags in the readelf output. Similar fixes are already present in the kernel by way of the following commits: 1fd6cee127e2 ("libbpf: Fix VERSIONED_SYM_COUNT number parsing") aa915931ac3e ("libbpf: Fix readelf output parsing for Fedora") [jpoimboe: rework commit log] Fixes: 1d1a0e7c5100 ("scripts/faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures") Signed-off-by: Srikar Dronamraju Acked-by: Naveen N.

scripts/faddr2line: Fix vmlinux detection on arm64

2022-08-02T20:08:16+00:00

Since commit dcea997beed6 ("faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures, the sequel"), faddr2line is completely broken on arm64. For some reason, on arm64, the vmlinux ELF object file type is ET_DYN rather than ET_EXEC. Check for both when determining whether the object is vmlinux. Modules and vmlinux.o have type ET_REL on all arches.

faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures, the sequel

2022-06-06T18:50:11+00:00

If a function lives in a section other than .text, but .text also exists in the object, faddr2line may wrongly assume .text. This can result in comically wrong output. For example: $ scripts/faddr2line vmlinux.o enter_from_user_mode+0x1c enter_from_user_mode+0x1c/0x30: find_next_bit at /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/./include/linux/find.h:40 (inlined by) perf_clear_dirty_counters at /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/arch/x86/events/core.c:2504 Fix it by passing the section name to addr2line, unless the object file is vmlinux, in which case the symbol table uses absolute addresses.

scripts/faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures

2022-05-12T19:07:11+00:00

There have been some recent reports of faddr2line failures: $ scripts/faddr2line sound/soundcore.ko sound_devnode+0x5/0x35 bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000000000 end: 0x0000000000000000 $ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux.o enter_from_user_mode+0x24 bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000005fe0 end: 0x0000000000005fe0 The problem is that faddr2line is based on 'nm', which has a major limitation: it doesn't know how to distinguish between different text sections. So if an offset exists in multiple text sections in the object, it may fail. Rewrite faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on readelf.

scripts/faddr2line: make the new code listing format optional

2018-06-05T16:04:37+00:00

Commit 6870c0165feaa5 ("scripts/faddr2line: show the code context") radically altered the output format of the faddr2line tool. And while the new list output format might have merit it broke my vim usage and was hard to read. Make the new format optional; using a '--list' argument and attempt to make the output slightly easier to read by adding a little whitespace to separate the different files and explicitly mark the line in question.
