Subject: [PATCH 1/2] perf report fix module symbol adjustment for s390x
Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2017 16:35:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170724143514.55574-1-tmricht@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

The perf report tool does not display the addresses of kernel
module symbols correctly.

For example symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd in kernel module qeth.ko
has this relative address for function qeth_send_ipa_cmd()
[root@s8360047 linux]# nm -g drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko | fgrep send_ipa_cmd
0000000000013088 T qeth_send_ipa_cmd

The module is loaded at address
[root@s8360047 linux]# cat /sys/module/qeth/sections/.text
0x000003ff80296d20
[root@s8360047 linux]#

This should result in a start address of
0x13088 + 0x3ff80296d20 = 0x3ff802a9da8

Using crash to verify the address on a live system:
[root@s8360046 linux]# crash vmlinux

crash 7.1.9++
Copyright (C) 2002-2016  Red Hat, Inc.
Copyright (C) 2004, 2005, 2006, 2010  IBM Corporation

[...]

crash> mod -s qeth drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko
     MODULE       NAME        SIZE  OBJECT FILE
     3ff8028d700  qeth      151552  drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko

3ff802a9da8 (T) qeth_send_ipa_cmd [qeth] /root/linux/drivers/s390/net/qeth_core_main.c: 2944
crash>

Now perf report displays the address of symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd:
symbol__new: qeth_send_ipa_cmd 0x130f0-0x132ce

There is a difference of 0x68 between the entry in the
symbol table (see nm command above) and perf. The difference is from
the offset the .text segment of qeth.ko:

[root@s8360047 perf]# readelf -a drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko
Section Headers:
  [Nr] Name              Type             Address           Offset

  [ 0]                   NULL             0000000000000000  00000000
       0000000000000000  0000000000000000           0     0     0
  [ 1] .note.gnu.build-i NOTE             0000000000000000  00000040
       0000000000000024  0000000000000000   A       0     0     4
  [ 2] .text             PROGBITS         0000000000000000  00000068
       000000000001c8a0  0000000000000000  AX       0     0     8

As seen the .text segment has an offset of 0x68 with start address 0x0.
Therefore 0x68 is added to the address of qeth_send_ipa_cmd and thus
0x13088 + 0x68 = 0x130f0 is displayed.

This is wrong, perf report needs to display the start address of
symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd at 0x13088 + qeth.ko.text section start address.

The qeth.ko module .text start address is available in the qeth.ko
DSO map. Just identify the kernel module symbols and correct the
addresses.

With the fix I see this correct address for symbol:
symbol__new: qeth_send_ipa_cmd 0x3ff802a9da8-0x3ff802a9f86

I am not sure if this patch uses the perfect approach.
Hints and sugguests welcome.
