10 years agoderive_probes(): properly handle optionality
Jonathan Lebon [Tue, 13 May 2014 21:15:01 +0000 (17:15 -0400)]
derive_probes(): properly handle optionality

We previously overrode a location's optionality if it was derived from a
globby process probe. However, this causes further probe points to be
derived to also be optional, even though the 'higher level' probe point
had its optionality restored to what the user really wants. The end
result was that we would list probes as not optional even though the
endpoint probe was optional.

What we really mean when we say process probes born out of a higher
globby process probe should be optional is that only some of the matched
binaries will actually resolve, so it's OK if some don't resolve.
However, those that *do* resolve should respect the user's wish with
regards to optionality.

To do this, we must not override the probe_point's optional flag in
derive_probes.

This is mostly a cosmetic change, although some runtime elements do rely
on optionality to decide whether to emit a warning upon failing to
register a probe.

This patch also makes process.library probes born out of a higher globby
library probe follow the same logic.

Jonathan Lebon [Thu, 15 May 2014 15:08:36 +0000 (11:08 -0400)]
label probes: rework logic

Ever since PR16615 (merge commit 4636ca3), statement/function probes
where we specify the full "func@file:N" have been too precise for label
probes.

Imagine the following C program:

   ...
   <expression-statement>
mylabel:
   <expression-statement>
   ...

The line at which 'mylabel' occurs is not actually associated with any
line records. Thus, when using the new iterate_over_srcfile_lines(),
specifying the lineno of the label results in no records found, whereas
prior to PR16615, the next lineno would be picked up.

Regardless, the previous mechanism of using iterate_over_srcfile_lines()
to then call back to query_srcfile_label() which in turn called
iterate_over_labels() was a roundabout way of making sure that the
specified lineno lies in a filtered function's DIE.

We now rework iterate_over_labels() to directly handle lineno matching
when necessary. Supported cases:

process.function("foo@file.c:N").label("*")
   --> matches label in foo at N

process.function("foo@file.c+N").label("*")
   --> matches label in foo at N + decl_line of foo

process.function("foo@file.c:N-M").label("*")
   --> matches labels in foo between N and M

process.function("foo@file.c:*").label("*")
   --> matches all labels in foo

This patch also pushes down the priority of "func@file:N" type probes so
that if a .label or .callee[s] is present, then the relevant
iterate_over_*() is called, rather than iterate_over_srcfile_lines().

process probes: throw error upon unresolved executable

When find_executable() fails to resolve something, it simply returns the
same path it was fed. Depending on the context, the caller may be able
to deal with an unresolved path.

In the case of process probes for dwarf_builder and other base_query
users, dealing with it meant simply that the dwflpp failed to find the
executable which meant iterate_over_modules() never even took off (and
we thus yielded the good ol' "no match" error).

However, in the case of library probes, this may not always work because
if the library path is fully specified, we will switch to it without
resorting to iterate_over_libraries() (see also previous patch) and
without ever actually checking if the process path was fully resolved,
thus allowing a probe such as the following to be created:

process("garbage").library("/full/path/to/library.so").function("foo")

So instead, we add explicit checks to verify that process probes were
properly resolved by find_executable(). As an added benefit, users get a
clearer reason of why the probe point failed:

BEFORE:

        source: probe process("asdf").library("mylib.so").function("foo") {}

Jonathan Lebon [Wed, 7 May 2014 14:59:13 +0000 (10:59 -0400)]
library probes: strengthen library path resolution

One of two things happens to library probes the first time we enter
dwarf_builder::build():
   - If the full path can be resolved using find_executable(), then we
     would right away switch focus to the library, rather than the
     process.
   - Otherwise, we would focus on the process and then use
     iterate_over_libraries() to find a library match.

These decisions are made in two spots: in dwarf_builder::build(), prior
to creating the dwflpp object, and in base_query::base_query().

When we resort to iterate_over_libraries(), new probes are created for
each matching library. And since the path inserted in those new probes
is the full path, find_executable() will find it upon recursing into
dwarf_builder::build().

One issue is that if find_executable() succeeds on the first time, we
will focus on the library, regardless of whether the library is NEEDED
or not. Whereas if find_executable() fails, only NEEDED libraries could
ever be picked up by iterate_over_libraries().

This is mostly fine, except that it creates an inconsistency. For
example, let's say executable 'bar' depends on 'libfoo.so' located in
/lib/. Doing a "libfoo.so" library probe would prioritize a libfoo.so
file in the current directory before the one in /lib/, which is the
'real' one. On the other hand, doing "libfoo.*" would match the
libfoo.so file in /lib/ because of the glob char.

It also fixes the potential issue of having a fully specified library
path with a bad process path: we would focus on the library yet in
query_module() try to iterate_over_libraries() on the library, thinking
that the library was not resolved.

In this series of patches, we change the behaviour as follow
   - Only switch to the library on the first entry of
     dwarf_builder::build() if the path is already fully resolved.
     Otherwise, always use iterate_over_libraries().
   - If iterate_over_libraries() fails, then try a direct
     find_executable() invocation, and warn that the found library is
     not a NEEDED one.

This patch does the first part only. The second part is done in the next
patch.

modules into the dwarf_builder's modules_seen after we're done iterating
through the modules. By the end, modules_seen contains the full list of
modules to suggest from.

Since .library(glob) probes resolve to multiple probes for each matching
library, dwarf_builder's modules_seen will already pick each of them up
from the individually created dwarf_query objects.

In commits e772a6e and 9891c54, we improved the way query_callee() and
query_label() add intermediate probes to the derivation chain by playing
with the dwarf_query. This technique will be required many times in
other places that we will need to fix up.

Therefore, we create two new dwarf_query helper functions. The
mount_well_formed_probe_point() function simply sets the current
base_loc and base_probe of the dwarf_query object to a new one, which is
denoted well-formed.

At first, this new location is simply a copy of the previous location,
with the exception of a fully resolved process/module path. Then,
depending on the probe point type, specific functors are replaced by
their final/non-globby versions to create a truly well-formed probe
point.

More helper functions to edit the functors will be added in the next
patch.

The unmount_well_formed_probe_point() refocuses the dwarf_query to the
previous base_loc/base_probe so that further probe points can be
derived.

Rather than relying on yucky heuristics, we go the explicit way. The
