perf probe: Fix to track down unnamed union/structure members
Fix 'perf probe' to track down unnamed union/structure members. perf probe did not track down the tree of unnamed union/structure members, since it just failed to find given "name" in a parent structure/union. To solve this issue, I've introduced 2 changes. - Fix die_find_member() to track down the type-DIE if it is unnamed, and if it contains the specified member, returns the unnamed member. (note that we don't return found member, since unnamed member has the offset in the parent structure) - Fix convert_variable_fields() to track down the unnamed union/ structure (one-by-one). With this patch, perf probe can access unnamed fields: ----- #./perf probe -nfx ./perf lock__delete ops 'locked_ops=ops->locked.ops' Added new event: probe_perf:lock__delete (on lock__delete in /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf with ops locked_ops=ops->locked.ops) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_perf:lock__delete -aR sleep 1 ----- Reported-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Report-Link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/5/431 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150402073312.14482.37942.stgit@localhost.localdomain Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
