From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> Its similar to doing grep on a /proc/kallsyms, but it also shows extra information like the path to the kernel module and the unrelocated addresses in it, to help in diagnosing problems.
It is also helps demonstrate the use of the symbols routines so that tool writers can use them more effectively. Using it: $ perf kallsyms e1000_xmit_frame netif_rx usb_stor_set_xfer_buf e1000_xmit_frame: [e1000e] /lib/modules/4.9.0+/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko 0xffffffffc046fc10-0xffffffffc0470bb0 (0x19c80-0x1ac20) netif_rx: [kernel] [kernel.kallsyms] 0xffffffff916f03a0-0xffffffff916f0410 (0xffffffff916f03a0-0xffffffff916f0410) usb_stor_set_xfer_buf: [usb_storage] /lib/modules/4.9.0+/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko 0xffffffffc057aea0-0xffffffffc057af19 (0xf10-0xf89) $ Cc: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> Cc: David Ahern <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <[email protected]> Cc: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Cc: Wang Nan <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> --- tools/perf/Build | 1 + tools/perf/Documentation/perf-kallsyms.txt | 24 +++++++++++ tools/perf/builtin-help.c | 2 +- tools/perf/builtin-kallsyms.c | 67 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ tools/perf/builtin.h | 1 + tools/perf/command-list.txt | 1 + tools/perf/perf.c | 1 + 7 files changed, 96 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 tools/perf/Documentation/perf-kallsyms.txt create mode 100644 tools/perf/builtin-kallsyms.c diff --git a/tools/perf/Build b/tools/perf/Build index b12d5d1666e3..0b48806f93c2 100644 --- a/tools/perf/Build +++ b/tools/perf/Build @@ -7,6 +7,7 @@ perf-y += builtin-help.o perf-y += builtin-sched.o perf-y += builtin-buildid-list.o perf-y += builtin-buildid-cache.o +perf-y += builtin-kallsyms.o perf-y += builtin-list.o perf-y += builtin-record.o perf-y += builtin-report.o diff --git a/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-kallsyms.txt b/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-kallsyms.txt new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..954ea9e21236 --- /dev/null +++ b/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-kallsyms.txt @@ -0,0 +1,24 @@ +perf-kallsyms(1) +============== + +NAME +---- +perf-kallsyms - Searches running kernel for symbols + +SYNOPSIS +-------- +[verse] +'perf kallsyms <options> symbol_name[,symbol_name...]' + +DESCRIPTION +----------- +This command searches the running kernel kallsyms file for the given symbol(s) +and prints information about it, including the DSO, the kallsyms begin/end +addresses and the addresses in the ELF kallsyms symbol table (for symbols in +modules). + +OPTIONS +------- +-v:: +--verbose=:: + Increase verbosity level, showing details about symbol table loading, etc. diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-help.c b/tools/perf/builtin-help.c index 3bdb2c78a21b..93da24a638be 100644 --- a/tools/perf/builtin-help.c +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-help.c @@ -434,7 +434,7 @@ int cmd_help(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix __maybe_unused) const char * const builtin_help_subcommands[] = { "buildid-cache", "buildid-list", "diff", "evlist", "help", "list", "record", "report", "bench", "stat", "timechart", "top", "annotate", - "script", "sched", "kmem", "lock", "kvm", "test", "inject", "mem", "data", + "script", "sched", "kallsyms", "kmem", "lock", "kvm", "test", "inject", "mem", "data", #ifdef HAVE_LIBELF_SUPPORT "probe", #endif diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-kallsyms.c b/tools/perf/builtin-kallsyms.c new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..224bfc454b4a --- /dev/null +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-kallsyms.c @@ -0,0 +1,67 @@ +/* + * builtin-kallsyms.c + * + * Builtin command: Look for a symbol in the running kernel and its modules + * + * Copyright (C) 2017, Red Hat Inc, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> + * + * Released under the GPL v2.
