Subject: [bug] wrong result of android callchain
Date: Tue, 5 Jan 2016 17:14:37 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <568B897D.1000209@huawei.com> (raw)

I found a wrong result of aarch64 callchain when using perf script on
a android phone.

Here's the callchain record fragment from the output of perf script:

   init   369 [002]   339.970607: raw_syscalls:sys_enter: NR 22 (b, 7fd9e360a0, 10, ffffffff, 0, 8)
                      ...
                    230ac [unknown] (/system/lib64/libsurfaceflinger.so)
                     11a0 main (/system/bin/surfaceflinger)
                    1c3fc __libc_init (/system/lib64/libc.so)
                      fd0 _start (/system/bin/surfaceflinger)
                     29ec __dl__start (/system/bin/linker64)

The fault occured in the '[unknown]' line, from objdump result of
/system/bin/surfaceflinger, we can see the branch instruction before
0x11a0:

  # objdump /system/bin/surfaceflinger
     1198:       f9400fe0        ldr     x0, [sp,#24]
     119c:       97ffff05        bl      db0 <_ZN7android14SurfaceFlinger3runEv@plt>
     11a0:       f9400be8        ldr     x8, [sp,#16]
     11a4:       b40000c8        cbz     x8, 11bc <main+0x150>

The function '_ZN7android14SurfaceFlinger3runEv' is located at 0x3a094
~ 0x3a0ac in libsurfaceflinger.so, but perf misparsed that value to
0x230ac:

  # objdump libsurfaceflinger.so
   000000000003a094 <_ZN7android14SurfaceFlinger3runEv>:
     3a094:       a9be4ff4        stp     x20, x19, [sp,#-32]!
     3a098:       a9017bfd        stp     x29, x30, [sp,#16]
     3a09c:       910043fd        add     x29, sp, #0x10
     3a0a0:       910c0013        add     x19, x0, #0x300
     3a0a4:       aa1303e0        mov     x0, x19
     3a0a8:       97fff12f        bl      36564 <_ZN7android12MessageQueue11waitMessageEv>
     3a0ac:       17fffffe        b       3a0a4 <_ZN7android14SurfaceFlinger3runEv+0x10>

There's a difference of 0x17000 between those two offsets, it seems
that this value is the VirtAddr of this dynamic library.

  # readelf -a libsurfaceflinger.so
   Program Headers:
     Type           Offset             VirtAddr           PhysAddr

     LOAD           0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000017000 0x0000000000017000
                    0x0000000000057258 0x0000000000057258  R E    1000
