perf annotate-data: Support global variables
Global variables are accessed using PC-relative address so it needs to be handled separately. The PC-rel addressing is detected by using DWARF_REG_PC. On x86, %rip register would be used. The address can be calculated using the ip and offset in the instruction. But it should start from the next instruction so add calculate_pcrel_addr() to do it properly. But global variables defined in a different file would only have a declaration which doesn't include a location list. So it first tries to get the type info using the address, and then looks up the variable declarations using name. The name of global variables should be get from the symbol table. The declaration would have the type info. So extend find_var_type() to take both address and name for global variables. The stat is now looks like: Annotate data type stats: total 294, ok 153 (52.0%), bad 141 (48.0%) ----------------------------------------------------------- 30 : no_sym 32 : no_mem_ops 61 : no_var 10 : no_typeinfo 8 : bad_offset Reviewed-by: Ian Rogers <[email protected]> Cc: Stephane Eranian <[email protected]> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <[email protected]> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]>
