<title>objtool: Fix STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD macro checking for function symbols</title>
<updated>2016-07-10T15:15:58+00:00</updated>

<id>0ea5ad869c85ac604f3e022bf2c5bef54838433b</id>
<content type='text'>
Mathieu Desnoyers reported that the STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD macro
wasn't working with the lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode() function in
the lttng-modules code.

Usually the relocation created by STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD creates a
reference to a section symbol like this:

  Offset              Type            Value               Addend Name
  000000000000000000  X86_64_64       000000000000000000   +3136 .text

But in this case it created a reference to a function symbol:

  Offset              Type            Value               Addend Name
  000000000000000000  X86_64_64       0x00000000000003a0      +0 lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode

To be honest I have no idea what causes gcc to decide to do one over the
other.  But both are valid ELF, so add support for the function symbol.

The write at the end of the test to restore nr_hugepages to its previous
value is failing.  This is because it is trying to write the number of
bytes in the char array as opposed to the number of bytes in the string.

 "Two fixes for the tracing system:

   - When trace_printk() is used with a non constant format descriptor,
     it adds a NULL pointer into the trace format section, and the code
     isn't prepared to deal with it.  This bug appeared by a change that
     was added in v3.5.

   - The ftracetest (selftests section) can't handle testing histograms
     when histograms are not configured.  Currently it shows that they
     fail the test, when they should state that they are unsupported.
     This bug was added in the 4.7 merge window with the addition of the
     historgram code"

<id>0ded5174e976e2b2a354fe38abf1ebf4492c6dc3</id>
<content type='text'>
When histograms are not configured in the kernel, the ftracetest histogram
selftests should return "unsupported" and not "Failed". To detect this, the
test scripts have:

 FEATURE=`grep hist events/sched/sched_process_fork/trigger`
 if [ -z "$FEATURE" ]; then
     echo "hist trigger is not supported"
     exit_unsupported
 fi

The problem is that '-e' is in effect and any error will cause the program
to terminate. The grep for 'hist' fails, because it is not compiled it (thus
unsupported), but because grep has an error code for failing to find the
string, it causes the program to terminate, and is marked as a failed test.

Namhyung Kim recommended to test for the "hist" file located in
events/sched/sched_process_fork/hist instead, as it is more inline with the
other checks. As the hist file is only created if the histogram feature is
enabled, that is a valid check.
