For ARM64, when tracing with tracepoint events, the IP and pstate are set
to 0, preventing the perf code parsing the callchain and resolving the
symbols correctly.
./perf record -e sched:sched_switch -g --call-graph dwarf ls
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.146 MB perf.data ]
./perf report -f
Samples: 194 of event 'sched:sched_switch', Event count (approx.): 194
Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol
100.00% 100.00% ls [unknown] [.] 0000000000000000
The fix is to implement perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs for ARM64, which fills
several necessary registers used for callchain unwinding, including pc,sp,
fp and spsr .
With this patch, callchain can be parsed correctly as follows:
......
+ 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] vfs_symlink
+ 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] follow_down
+ 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] pfkey_get
+ 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_execveat_common.isra.33
- 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] pfkey_send_policy_notify
pfkey_send_policy_notify
pfkey_get
v9fs_vfs_rename
page_follow_link_light
link_path_walk
el0_svc_naked
