When an IP with an unresolved symbol occurs in the callchain more than
once (ie. recursion), then duplicate symbols can be created because
the callchain nodes are never updated after they are first created.
To fix this issue we call dso__find_symbol whenever we encounter a NULL
symbol, in case we already added a symbol at that IP since we started
traversing the callchain.
This change prevents duplicate symbols from being exported when duplicate
IPs are present in the callchain.

Remove the call to map_ip() to adjust al.addr, because it has already
been called when assembling the callchain, in:
thread__resolve_callchain_sample(perf_sample)
add_callchain_ip(ip = perf_sample->callchain->ips[j])
thread__find_addr_location(addr = ip)
thread__find_addr_map(addr) {
al->addr = addr
if (al->map)
al->addr = al->map->map_ip(al->map, al->addr);
}
Calling it a second time can result in incorrect addresses being used.
This can have effects such as duplicate symbols being created and
exported.

Use the dso__insert_symbol function instead of symbols__insert() in
order to properly update the dso symbol cache.
If the cache is not updated, then duplicate symbols can be
unintentionally created, inserted, and exported.
This change prevents duplicate symbols from being exported due to
dso__find_symbol() using a stale symbol cache.

The current method for inserting symbols is to use the symbols__insert()
function. However symbols__insert() does not update the dso symbol
cache. This causes problems in the following scenario:
1. symbol not found at addr using dso__find_symbol
2. symbol inserted at addr using the existing symbols__insert function
3. symbol still not found at addr using dso__find_symbol() because cache isn't
updated. This is undesired behavior.
The undesired behavior in (3) is addressed by creating a new function,
dso__insert_symbol() to both insert the symbol and update the symbol
cache if necessary.
If dso__insert_symbol() is used in (2) instead of symbols__insert(),
then the undesired behavior in (3) is avoided.

This change introduces a fix to symbols__find, so that it is able to
find symbols of length zero (where start == end).
The current code has the following problem:
- The current implementation of symbols__find is unable to find any symbols
of length zero.
- The db-export framework explicitly creates zero length symbols at
locations where no symbol currently exists.
The combination of the two above behaviors results in behavior similar
to the example below.
1. addr_location is created for a sample, but symbol is unable to be
resolved.
2. db export creates an "unknown" symbol of length zero at that address
and inserts it into the dso.
3. A new sample comes in at the same address, but symbol__find is unable
to find the zero length symbol, so it is still unresolved.
4. db export sees the symbol is unresolved, and allocated a duplicate
symbol, even though it already did this in step 2.
This behavior continues every time an address without symbol information
is seen, which causes a very large number of these symbols to be
allocated.
The effect of this fix can be observed by looking at the contents of an
exported database before/after the fix (generated with
scripts/python/export-to-postgresql.py)
Ex.
BEFORE THE CHANGE:
example_db=# select count(*) from symbols;
count
--------
900213
(1 row)
example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name='unknown';
count
--------
897355
(1 row)
example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where symbols.name!='unknown';
count
-------
2858
(1 row)
AFTER THE CHANGE:

-------
25217

example_db=# select count(*) from symbols where name='unknown';

-------
22359

The first round creates a relative large ring buffer (256 pages). It can

Update the export-to-postgresql.py to support the newly introduced
callchain export.
callchains are added into the existing call_paths table and can now
be associated with samples when the "callpaths" commandline option
is used with the script.
Ex.:
$ perf script -s export-to-postgresql.py example_db all callchains
Includes the following changes to enable callchain export via the python export
APIs:
- Add the "callchains" commandline option, which is used to enable
callchain export by setting the perf_db_export_callchains global
- Add perf_db_export_callchains checks for call_path table creation
and population.
- Add call_path_id to samples_table to conform with the new API
example usage and output using a small test app:
test_app.c:
volatile int x = 0;
void inc_x_loop()
{
int i;
for(i=0; i<100000000; i++)
x++;
}
void a()
{
inc_x_loop();
}
void b()
{
inc_x_loop();
}
int main()
{
a();
b();
return 0;
}
example usage:
$ gcc -g -O0 test_app.c
$ perf record --call-graph=dwarf ./a.out
[ perf record: Woken up 77 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 19.373 MB perf.data (2404 samples) ]
$ perf script -s scripts/python/export-to-postgresql.py
example_db all callchains
$ psql example_db
example_db=#
SELECT
(SELECT name FROM symbols WHERE id = cps.symbol_id) as symbol,
(SELECT name FROM symbols WHERE id =
(SELECT symbol_id from call_paths where id = cps.parent_id))
as parent_symbol,
sum(period) as event_count
FROM samples join call_paths as cps on call_path_id = cps.id
GROUP BY cps.id,evsel_id
ORDER BY event_count DESC
LIMIT 5;
symbol | parent_symbol | event_count
------------------+--------------------------+-------------
inc_x_loop | a | 734250982
inc_x_loop | b | 731028057
unknown | unknown | 1335858
task_tick_fair | scheduler_tick | 1238842
update_wall_time | tick_do_update_jiffies64 | 650373
(5 rows)
The above data shows total "self time" in cycles for each call path that was
sampled. It is intended to demonstrate how it accounts separately for the two
ways to reach the "inc_x_loop" function(via "a" and "b"). Recursive common
table expressions can be used as well to get cumulative time spent in a
function as well, but that is beyond the scope of this basic example.

This change allows python scripts to be able to utilize the recent
changes to the db export api allowing the export of call_paths derived
from sampled callchains. These call paths are also now associated with
the samples from which they were derived.
- This feature is enabled by setting "perf_db_export_callchains" to true
- When enabled, samples that have callchain information will have the
callchains exported via call_path_table
- The call_path_id field is added to sample_table to enable association of
samples with the corresponding callchain stored in the call paths
table. A call_path_id of 0 will be exported if there is no
corresponding callchain.
- When "perf_db_export_callchains" and "perf_db_export_calls" are both
set to True, the call path root data structure will be shared. This
prevents duplicating of data and call path ids that would result from
building two separate call path trees in memory.
- The call_return_processor structure definition was relocated to the header
file to make its contents visible to db-export.c. This enables the
sharing of call path trees between the two features, as mentioned
above.
This change is visible to python scripts using the python db export api.
The change is backwards compatible with scripts written against the
previous API, assuming that the scripts model the sample_table function
after the one in export-to-postgresql.py script by allowing for
additional arguments to be added in the future. ie. using *x as the
final argument of the sample_table function.

The exported sample now contains a reference to the call_path_id that
represents its callchain.
While callchains themselves are nice to have, being able to associate
them with samples makes them much more useful, and can allow for such
things as determining how much cumulative time is spent in a particular
function. This information is normally possible to get from the call
return processor. However, when doing normal sampling, call/return
information is not available, thus necessitating the need for
associating samples directly with call paths.
This commit include changes to db-export layer to make this information
available for subsequent patches in this change set, but by itself, does
not make any changes visible to the user.
