perf probe: can't find unnamed union members

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

Hi Masami,

[root@zoo ~]# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf -L lock__delete <lock__delete@/home/git/linux/tools/perf/util/annotate.c:0>
      0  static void lock__delete(struct ins_operands *ops)
      1  {
      2         struct ins *ins = ops->locked.ins;
         
      4         if (ins && ins->ops->free)
      5                 ins->ops->free(ops->locked.ops);
                else
      7                 ins__delete(ops->locked.ops);
         
      9         zfree(&ops->locked.ops);
     10         zfree(&ops->target.raw);
     11         zfree(&ops->target.name);
     12  }

And:

[root@zoo ~]# pahole ~/bin/perf -C ins_operands

	union {

			char *     name;                 /*    48     8 */
			u64        addr;                 /*    56     8 */
		} source;                                /*          24 */
		struct {
			struct ins * ins;                /*    40     8 */
			struct ins_operands * ops;       /*    48     8 */
		} locked;                                /*          16 */
	};                                               /*    40    24 */
	/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */

	/* size: 64, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
};
[root@zoo ~]#

But:

[root@zoo ~]# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf lock__delete ops 'locked_ops=ops->locked.ops'
ops(type:ins_operands) has no member locked.
  Error: Failed to add events.
[root@zoo ~]# 

Yes, it has :-)

[PATCH perf/core ] perf-probe: Fix to track down unnamed union/structure members

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Fix perf probe to track down unnamed union/structure members.
perf probe did not track down the tree of unnamed union/structure
members, since it just failed to find given "name" in a parent
structure/union. To solve this issue, I've introduced 2 changes.

- Fix die_find_member() to track down the type-DIE if it is
  unnamed, and if it contains the specified member, returns the
  unnamed member.
  (note that we don't return found member, since unnamed member
   has the offset in the parent structure)
- Fix convert_variable_fields() to track down the unnamed union/
  structure (one-by-one).

With this patch, perf probe can access unnamed fields.
  -----
  #./perf probe -nfx ./perf lock__delete ops 'locked_ops=ops->locked.ops'
  Added new event:
    probe_perf:lock__delete (on lock__delete in /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf with ops locked_ops=ops->locked.ops)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e probe_perf:lock__delete -aR sleep 1

what am I doing wrong?

[root@ssdandy ~]# perf probe ~acme/bin/perf lock__delete 'locked_ops=ops'

[PATCH perf/core v2] perf-probe: Fix to track down unnamed union/structure members

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Fix perf probe to track down unnamed union/structure members.
perf probe did not track down the tree of unnamed union/structure
members, since it just failed to find given "name" in a parent
structure/union. To solve this issue, I've introduced 2 changes.

- Fix die_find_member() to track down the type-DIE if it is
  unnamed, and if it contains the specified member, returns the
  unnamed member.
  (note that we don't return found member, since unnamed member
   has the offset in the parent structure)
- Fix convert_variable_fields() to track down the unnamed union/
  structure (one-by-one).

With this patch, perf probe can access unnamed fields.
  -----
  #./perf probe -nfx ./perf lock__delete ops 'locked_ops=ops->locked.ops'
  Added new event:
    probe_perf:lock__delete (on lock__delete in /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf with ops locked_ops=ops->locked.ops)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e probe_perf:lock__delete -aR sleep 1

Fix 'perf probe' to track down unnamed union/structure members.

perf probe did not track down the tree of unnamed union/structure
members, since it just failed to find given "name" in a parent

- Fix die_find_member() to track down the type-DIE if it is
  unnamed, and if it contains the specified member, returns the
  unnamed member.
  (note that we don't return found member, since unnamed member

I've missed to include a local fix to this patch...
