Looks like this in gdb: #0 0x0000003e3687f2e0 in __strlen_sse2 () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #1 0x0000003e368c04c5 in regexec@@GLIBC_2.3.4 () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #2 0x000000000047677a in look_ahead (opt=<value optimized out>, name=<value optimized out>, buf=<value optimized out>, size=<value optimized out>, collect_hits=<value optimized out>) at grep.c:679 #3 grep_buffer_1 (opt=<value optimized out>, name=<value optimized out>, buf=<value optimized out>, size=<value optimized out>, collect_hits=<value optimized out>) at grep.c:790 so it's sadly internal to regex. It would be nice if there was a non-string interface to regexec (ie a "buffer + length" instead of a NUL-terminated string). > If I use perf record -g I get I suspect that libc isn't compiled with frame pointers, so call chains end up being unreliable.
