[PATCH 4.18 093/168] perf annotate: Fix parsing aarch64 branch instructions after objdump update

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Oct 08 2018 - 14:51:18 EST


4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kim Phillips <kim.phillips@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4e67b2a5df5d3f341776d12ee575e00ca3ef92de ]

Starting with binutils 2.28, aarch64 objdump adds comments to the
disassembly output to show the alternative names of a condition code
[1].

It is assumed that commas in objdump comments could occur in other
arches now or in the future, so this fix is arch-independent.

The fix could have been done with arm64 specific jump__parse and
jump__scnprintf functions, but the jump__scnprintf instruction would
have to have its comment character be a literal, since the scnprintf
functions cannot receive a struct arch easily.

This inconvenience also applies to the generic jump__scnprintf, which is
why we add a raw_comment pointer to struct ins_operands, so the __parse
function assigns it to be re-used by its corresponding __scnprintf
function.

Example differences in 'perf annotate --stdio2' output on an aarch64
perf.data file:

BEFORE: â b.cs ffff200008133d1c <unwind_frame+0x18c> // b.hs, dffff7ecc47b
AFTER : â b.cs 18c

BEFORE: â b.cc ffff200008d8d9cc <get_alloc_profile+0x31c> // b.lo, b.ul, dffff727295b
AFTER : â b.cc 31c

The branch target labels 18c and 31c also now appear in the output:

BEFORE: add x26, x29, #0x80
AFTER : 18c: add x26, x29, #0x80

BEFORE: add x21, x21, #0x8
AFTER : 31c: add x21, x21, #0x8

The Fixes: tag below is added so stable branches will get the update; it
doesn't necessarily mean that commit was broken at the time, rather it
didn't withstand the aarch64 objdump update.

Tested no difference in output for sample x86_64, power arch perf.data files.
