perf uretprobe ppc64le: Fix probe location
Perf uretprobe probes on GEP(Global Entry Point) which fails to record
all function calls via LEP(Local Entry Point). Fix that by probing on LEP.
Objdump:
00000000100005f0 <doit>:
100005f0: 02 10 40 3c lis r2,4098
100005f4: 00 7f 42 38 addi r2,r2,32512
100005f8: a6 02 08 7c mflr r0
100005fc: 10 00 01 f8 std r0,16(r1)
10000600: f8 ff e1 fb std r31,-8(r1)
Before applying patch:
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
r:probe_uprobe_test/doit /home/ravi/uprobe_test:0x00000000000005f0
After applying patch:
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
r:probe_uprobe_test/doit /home/ravi/uprobe_test:0x00000000000005f8
This is not the case with kretprobes because the kernel itself finds LEP
and probes on it.
