perf probe: Filter out redundant inline-instances
With gcc4.6, some instances of concrete inlined function looks redundant and broken, because it appears inside of a concrete instance and its call_file and call_line are same as the original abstruct's decl_file and decl_line respectively. e.g. [ d1aa] subprogram external (flag) Yes name (strp) "add_timer" decl_file (data1) 2 ;here is original decl_line (data2) 847 ;line and file prototyped (flag) Yes inline (data1) inlined (1) sibling (ref4) [ d1c6] ... [ 11d84] subprogram abstract_origin (ref4) [ d1aa] ; concrete instance low_pc (addr) .text+0x000000000000246f <add_timer> high_pc (addr) .text+0x000000000000248b <mod_timer_pending> frame_base (block1) [ 0] call_frame_cfa sibling (ref4) [ 11dd9] [ 11d9f] formal_parameter abstract_origin (ref4) [ d1b9] location (data4) location list [ 701b] [ 11da8] inlined_subroutine abstract_origin (ref4) [ d1aa] ; redundant instance low_pc (addr) .text+0x000000000000247e <add_timer+0xf> high_pc (addr) .text+0x0000000000002480 <add_timer+0x11> call_file (data1) 2 ; call line and file call_line (data2) 847 ; are same as above Those redundant instances leads unwilling results; e.g. find probe points inside of functions even if we specify a function entry as below; $ perf probe -V add_timer Available variables at add_timer @<add_timer+0> struct timer_list* timer @<add_timer+15> (No matched variables) So, this filters out those redundant instances based on call-site and decl-site information.
