[PATCH 0/3] Add data type profiling support for powerpc

[Athira Rajeev]

From: Akanksha J N <Akanksha.J.N@ibm.com>

The patchset from Namhyung added support for data type profiling
in perf tool. This enabled support to associate PMU samples to data
types they refer using DWARF debug information. With the upstream
perf, currently it possible to run perf report or perf annotate to
view the data type information on x86.

This patchset includes changes need to enable data type profiling
support for powerpc. Main change are:
1. powerpc instruction nmemonic table to associate load/store
instructions with move_ops which is use to identify if instruction
is a memory access one.
2. To get register number and access offset from the given
instruction, code uses fields from "struct arch" -> objump.
Add entry for powerpc here.
3. A get_arch_regnum to return register number from the
register name string.

These three patches are the basic foundational patches.
With these changes, data types is getting identified for kernel
and user-space samples. There are still samples, which comes as
"unknown" and needs to be checked. We plan to get those addressed
in follow up. With the current patchset:

[PATCH 1/3] tools/perf/arch/powerpc: Add load/store in powerpc annotate instructions for data type profling

[Athira Rajeev]

Add powerpc instruction nmemonic table to associate load/store
instructions with move_ops. mov_ops is used to identify mem_type
to associate instruction with data type and offset. Also initialize
and allocate arch specific fields for nr_instructions, instructions and
nr_instructions_allocate.

Hi All,

Please ignore this version. I made mistake in cover letter. I am re-posting the correct version now.
Sorry for the confusion

[PATCH 2/3] tools/erf/util/annotate: Set register_char and memory_ref_char for powerpc

[Athira Rajeev]

To identify if the instruction has any memory reference,
"memory_ref_char" field needs to be set for specific architecture.
Example memory instruction:
lwz     r10,0(r9)

Here "(" is the memory_ref_char. Set this as part of arch->objdump

To get register number and access offset from the given instruction,
arch->objdump.register_char is used. In case of powerpc, the register
char is "r" (since reg names are r0 to r31). Hence set register_char
as "r".

[PATCH 3/3] tools/perf/arch/powerc: Add get_arch_regnum for powerpc

The function get_dwarf_regnum() returns a DWARF register number
from a register name string. This calls arch specific function
get_arch_regnum to return register number for corresponding arch.
Add mappings for register name to register number in powerpc code:

Hello,

Sorry for the super late reply.

Cool!  I'm happy to see it works well on powerpc too.

Lots of codes are still assuming x86 so you may need to
add separate logics like parsing the instruction location.

And instruction tracking is also a great concern.
But we may have something in the clang/LLVM to produce
more debug information and hopefully we can remove the
instruction tracking at all.

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/81545

Anyway I'm really looking forward to seeing v2 soon.

Thanks,
Namhyung
