MIPS: Tracing: Add function graph tracer support for MIPS
The implementation of function graph tracer for MIPS is a little different from X86. in MIPS, gcc(with -pg) only transfer the caller's return address(at) and the _mcount's return address(ra) to us. For the kernel part without -mlong-calls: move at, ra jal _mcount For the module part with -mlong-calls: lui v1, hi16bit_of_mcount addiu v1, v1, low16bit_of_mcount move at, ra jal _mcount Without -mlong-calls, if the function is a leaf, it will not save the return address(ra): ffffffff80101298 <au1k_wait>: ffffffff80101298: 67bdfff0 daddiu sp,sp,-16 ffffffff8010129c: ffbe0008 sd s8,8(sp) ffffffff801012a0: 03a0f02d move s8,sp ffffffff801012a4: 03e0082d move at,ra ffffffff801012a8: 0c042930 jal ffffffff8010a4c0 <_mcount> ffffffff801012ac: 00020021 nop so, we can hijack it directly in _mcount, but if the function is non-leaf, the return address is saved in the stack. ffffffff80133030 <copy_process>: ffffffff80133030: 67bdff50 daddiu sp,sp,-176 ffffffff80133034: ffbe00a0 sd s8,160(sp) ffffffff80133038: 03a0f02d move s8,sp ffffffff8013303c: ffbf00a8 sd ra,168(sp) ffffffff80133040: ffb70098 sd s7,152(sp) ffffffff80133044: ffb60090 sd s6,144(sp) ffffffff80133048: ffb50088 sd s5,136(sp) ffffffff8013304c: ffb40080 sd s4,128(sp) ffffffff80133050: ffb30078 sd s3,120(sp) ffffffff80133054: ffb20070 sd s2,112(sp) ffffffff80133058: ffb10068 sd s1,104(sp) ffffffff8013305c: ffb00060 sd s0,96(sp) ffffffff80133060: 03e0082d move at,ra ffffffff80133064: 0c042930 jal ffffffff8010a4c0 <_mcount> ffffffff80133068: 00020021 nop but we can not get the exact stack address(which saved ra) directly in _mcount, we need to search the content of at register in the stack space or search the "s{d,w} ra, offset(sp)" instruction in the text. 'Cause we can not prove there is only a match in the stack space, so, we search the text instead. as we can see, if the first instruction above "move at, ra" is not a store instruction, there should be a leaf function, so we hijack the at register directly via putting &return_to_handler into it, otherwise, we search the "s{d,w} ra, offset(sp)" instruction to get the stack offset, and then the stack address. we use the above copy_process() as an example, we at last find "ffbf00a8", 0xa8 is the stack offset, we plus it with s8(fp), that is the stack address, we hijack the content via writing the &return_to_handler in. If with -mlong-calls, since there are two more instructions above "move at, ra", so, we can move the pointer to the position above "lui v1, hi16bit_of_mcount".
