cc: Don't parse the same module multiple times for USDT probes
-
Sasha Goldshtein authored
If a module has more than one executable region, it is reported multiple times by `bcc_procutils_each_module`. This is fine for symbol resolution, but we don't need the duplicates for parsing the ELF header looking for USDT probes: the first appearance of that module is enough. This also prevents issues with the same probe appearing multiple times with the same location, which results in an invalid program when reading USDT arguments. Fix by storing each visited module in the USDT::Context class, and ignoring modules that were already visited.

When a symbol lies within a module, and that module doesn't have debuginfo (or doesn't even have an ELF header), the symbol will always be resolved as [unknown]. However, the /tmp/perf-PID.map (perf map) for that process might actually have an entry for that symbol, if it was dynamically generated by some external tool. This commit changes the resolution process such that if the desired address lies in a module but that module doesn't have debuginfo, we keep trying to resolve it in subsequent modules (including the perf map). If we resolve it successfully using the perf map, the reported symbol information will have the original module's name, so we don't lose fidelity. The motivation for this change is the way symbols work with .NET Core on Linux. The runtime binaries are compiled ahead-of-time to native code, but do not have debuginfo. There is an external tool, which generates a file similar to a perf map (albeit with relative addresses) for these binaries. This file can then be merged into the main perf map for the process and used for symbol resolution, but only if we keep trying to use the perf map when the symbol is in a previously-seen module.

Make perf ring buffer size configurable
-
- 27 Feb, 2017 1 commit

Mark Drayton authored
As discussed in #966, this PR makes the size of the ring buffer used to send data to userspace configurable. It changes the Python, Lua and C++ APIs to expose this knob. It also defaults the buffer size to a larger value (64 pages per CPU, an 8x increase) for several tools which produce a lot of output, as well as making it configurable in `trace` via a `-b` flag.

`ProcSyms::Module::find_addr` incorrectly resolves symbols when functions are nested in each other. Specifically, this was discovered with libpthread, where there are multiple symbols for `write`, where `write_nocancel` is strictly nested inside `write`. Fix by explicitly going backward until we reach a matching symbol -- see details in `ProcSyms::Module::find_addr` comments.

Improve matching of file-backed memory mappings
-
Mark Drayton authored
Use the same rules as perf to determine if a mapping in /proc/pid/maps is file-backed. This allows mappings in anonymous huge pages and so on to fall back to resolving from /tmp/perf-pid.map, if appropriate. ref: http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/tools/perf/util/map.c#L28

External debuginfo support and general symbols overhaul
-
Sasha Goldshtein authored
This commit introduces support for tests of the new debuglink and build-id debuginfo resolution functionality. The tests build a dummy.c file with a debuglink section, and again with a build-id section, and make sure that the symbol resolution code can locate the debug information correctly (in the binary's directory for debuglink, and in /usr/lib/debug/.build-id for the build-id).

The implementation of `ProcSyms::resolve_name` was only valid for kernel symbols, when there is no module. When a module was provided, it would segfault due to the module being null. Fixed by making `bcc_symcache_resolve_name` take an additional module parameter, which, for kernel symbols, is simply null (`None` from Python).

Adds support for resolving symbols using external debuginfo files, which can be retrieved from two locations. First, check the build-id of the desired binary and look in /usr/lib/debug/.build-id according to the build-id structure. Second, check the debuglink section of the desired binary and look in /usr/lib/debug or in the binary's current directory. These are the rules applied by GDB as well, but GDB lets the user reconfigure the debug directory path from /usr/lib/debug to something else; we do not support this. These changes are based on the following description of how GDB resolves external debuginfo: https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Separate-Debug-Files.html

When resolving symbols, ProcSyms would treat position-independent executables (PIE files) incorrectly, resulting in symbol resolution failures. Specifically, PIE files are treated like shared objects for ASLR, which means all symbol addresses in the file need to be taken relative to the executable load address at runtime, the same as with dynamic library shared objects. The fix is in the `is_so()` method on `ProcSyms::Module`, which now uses the correct `bcc_elf_is_shared` helper for testing if a file is a shared object rather than just looking at the extension ".so", which is very brittle -- and wrong.

Remove usyms.py dependency and replace with new symbols API.
-
Sasha Goldshtein authored
The new API has two main methods: `sym` and `ksym` (the second is a trivial wrapper of the first one). Both methods accept two Boolean flags arguments: `show_module` and `show_address`. The first controls whether the resulting symbol name should contain the name of the symbol's module, in brackets. For kernel symbols, this is simply "[kernel]". The second controls whether the resulting symbol name should contain the instruction offset from the beginning of the symbol, e.g. "start_thread+0x202".
