Subject: [PATCH v3 8/8] perf annotate: Hide data-type for stack operation and canary
Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2025 22:00:54 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250716050054.14130-9-namhyung@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250716050054.14130-1-namhyung@kernel.org>
It's mostly unnecessary to print when it has no actual type information
like in the stack operations and canary. Let's have them if -v option
is given.
Before:
$ perf annotate --code-with-type
...
: 0 0xd640 <_dl_relocate_object>:
0.00 : 0: endbr64
0.00 : 4: pushq %rbp # data-type: (stack operation)
0.00 : 5: movq %rsp, %rbp
0.00 : 8: pushq %r15 # data-type: (stack operation)
0.00 : a: pushq %r14 # data-type: (stack operation)
0.00 : c: pushq %r13 # data-type: (stack operation)
0.00 : e: pushq %r12 # data-type: (stack operation)
0.00 : 10: pushq %rbx # data-type: (stack operation)
0.00 : 11: subq $0xf8, %rsp
...
0.00 : d4: testl %eax, %eax
0.00 : d6: jne 0xf424
0.00 : dc: movq 0xf0(%r14), %rbx # data-type: struct link_map +0xf0
0.00 : e3: testq %rbx, %rbx
0.00 : e6: jne 0xf2dd
0.00 : ec: cmpq $0, 0xf8(%r14) # data-type: struct link_map +0xf8
...
After:
: 0 0xd640 <_dl_relocate_object>:
0.00 : 0: endbr64
0.00 : 4: pushq %rbp
0.00 : 5: movq %rsp, %rbp
0.00 : 8: pushq %r15
0.00 : a: pushq %r14
0.00 : c: pushq %r13
0.00 : e: pushq %r12
0.00 : 10: pushq %rbx
0.00 : 11: subq $0xf8, %rsp
...
0.00 : d4: testl %eax, %eax
0.00 : d6: jne 0xf424
0.00 : dc: movq 0xf0(%r14), %rbx # data-type: struct link_map +0xf0
0.00 : e3: testq %rbx, %rbx
0.00 : e6: jne 0xf2dd
0.00 : ec: cmpq $0, 0xf8(%r14) # data-type: struct link_map +0xf8
...
