| # recordmcount.pl - makes a section called __mcount_loc that holds |
| # all the offsets to the calls to mcount. |
| # |
| # |
| # What we want to end up with is a section in vmlinux called |
| # __mcount_loc that contains a list of pointers to all the |
| # call sites in the kernel that call mcount. Later on boot up, the kernel |
| # will read this list, save the locations and turn them into nops. |
| # When tracing or profiling is later enabled, these locations will then |
| # be converted back to pointers to some function. |
| # |
| # This is no easy feat. This script is called just after the original |
| # object is compiled and before it is linked. |
| # |
| # The references to the call sites are offsets from the section of text |
| # that the call site is in. Hence, all functions in a section that |
| # has a call site to mcount, will have the offset from the beginning of |
| # the section and not the beginning of the function. |
| # |
| # The trick is to find a way to record the beginning of the section. |
| # The way we do this is to look at the first function in the section |
| # which will also be the location of that section after final link. |
| # e.g. |
| # |
| # .section ".text.sched" |
| # .globl my_func |
| # my_func: |
| # [...] |
| # call mcount (offset: 0x5) |
| # [...] |
| # ret |
| # other_func: |
| # [...] |
| # call mcount (offset: 0x1b) |
| # [...] |
| # |
| # Both relocation offsets for the mcounts in the above example will be |
| # offset from .text.sched. If we make another file called tmp.s with: |
| # |
| # .section __mcount_loc |
| # .quad my_func + 0x5 |
| # .quad my_func + 0x1b |
| # |
| # We can then compile this tmp.s into tmp.o, and link it to the original |
| # object. |
| # |
| # But this gets hard if my_func is not globl (a static function). |
| # In such a case we have: |
| # |
| # .section ".text.sched" |
| # my_func: |
| # [...] |
| # call mcount (offset: 0x5) |
| # [...] |
| # ret |
| # .globl my_func |
| # other_func: |
| # [...] |
| # call mcount (offset: 0x1b) |
| # [...] |
| # |
| # If we make the tmp.s the same as above, when we link together with |
| # the original object, we will end up with two symbols for my_func: |
| # one local, one global. After final compile, we will end up with |
| # an undefined reference to my_func. |
| # |
| # Since local objects can reference local variables, we need to find |
| # a way to make tmp.o reference the local objects of the original object |
| # file after it is linked together. To do this, we convert the my_func |
| # into a global symbol before linking tmp.o. Then after we link tmp.o |
| # we will only have a single symbol for my_func that is global. |
| # We can convert my_func back into a local symbol and we are done. |
| # |
| # Here are the steps we take: |
| # |
| # 1) Record all the local symbols by using 'nm' |
| # 2) Use objdump to find all the call site offsets and sections for |
| # mcount. |
| # 3) Compile the list into its own object. |
| # 4) Do we have to deal with local functions? If not, go to step 8. |
| # 5) Make an object that converts these local functions to global symbols |
| # with objcopy. |
| # 6) Link together this new object with the list object. |
| # 7) Convert the local functions back to local symbols and rename |
| # the result as the original object. |
| # End. |
| # 8) Link the object with the list object. |
| # 9) Move the result back to the original object. |
| # End. |
