[PATCH 2/2] btf_encoder: Change functions check due to broken dwarf

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We need to generate just single BTF instance for the
function, while DWARF data contains multiple instances
of DW_TAG_subprogram tag.

Unfortunately we can no longer rely on DW_AT_declaration
tag (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=97060)

Instead we apply following checks:
  - argument names are defined for the function
  - there's symbol and address defined for the function
  - function is generated only once

Also because we want to follow kernel's ftrace traceable
functions, this patchset is adding extra check that the
function is one of the ftrace's functions.

All ftrace functions addresses are stored in vmlinux
binary within symbols:
  __start_mcount_loc
  __stop_mcount_loc

During object preparation code we read those addresses,
sort them and use them as filter for all detected dwarf
functions.

We also filter out functions within .init section, ftrace
is doing that in runtime.

I can still see several differences to ftrace functions in
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/available_filter_functions file:

  - available_filter_functions includes modules (7086 functions)
  - available_filter_functions includes functions like:
      __acpi_match_device.part.0.constprop.0
      acpi_ns_check_sorted_list.constprop.0
      acpi_os_unmap_generic_address.part.0
      acpiphp_check_bridge.part.0

    which are not part of dwarf data (1164 functions)
  - BTF includes multiple functions like:
      __clk_register_clkdev
      clk_register_clkdev

    which share same code so they appear just as single function
    in available_filter_functions, but dwarf keeps track of both
    of them (16 functions)

With this change I'm getting 38334 BTF functions, which
when added above functions to consideration gives same
amount of functions in available_filter_functions.

The patch still keeps the original function filter condition
(that uses current fn->declaration check) in case the object
does not contain *_mcount_loc symbol -> object is not vmlinux.
