2010-02-02markup_oops.pl: fix $func_offset error with x86_64Hui Zhu
When I use markup_oops.pl parse a x8664 oops, I got: objdump: --start-address: bad number: NaN No matching code found This is because: main::(./m.pl:228): open(FILE, "objdump -dS --adjust-vma=$vmaoffset --start-address=$decodestart --stop-address=$decodestop $filename |") || die "Cannot start objdump"; DB<3> p $decodestart NaN This NaN is from: main::(./m.pl:176): my $decodestart = Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$target") - Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$func_offset"); DB<2> p $func_offset 0x175 There is already a "0x" in $func_offset, another 0x makes it a NaN. The $func_offset is from line: if ($line =~ /RIP: 0010:\[\<[0-9a-f]+\>\] \[\<[0-9a-f]+\>\] ([a-zA-Z0-9\_]+)\+(0x[0-9a-f]+)\/0x[a-f0-9]/) { $function = $1; $func_offset = $2; } I make a patch to change "(0x[0-9a-f]+)\/0x[a-f0-9]/)" to "0x([0-9a-f]+)\/0x[a-f0-9]/)".

2010-01-16markup_oops.pl: fix error with x86Hui Zhu
When I try to use markup_oops.pl in x86, I always get: cat 1 | perl markup_oops.pl ./vmlinux objdump: --start-address: bad number: NaN No matching code found This is because in line: if ($line =~ /EIP is at ([a-zA-Z0-9\_]+)\+0x([0-9a-f]+)\/[a-f0-9]/) { $function = $1; $func_offset = $2; } $func_offset will get a number like "0x2" But in follow code: my $decodestart = Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$target") - Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$func_offset"); It add other ox to ox2. Then this value will be set to NaN. So I made a small patch to fix it.

2009-09-20markup_oops: use modinfo to avoid confusion with underscored module namesOzan Çaglayan
When EIP is at a module having an underscore in its name, the current code fails to find it because the module filenames has '-' instead of '_'. Use modinfo for a better path finding.

A 32-bit perl can't handle 64-bit addresses without using the BigInt package.

2009-02-15scripts: add x86 register parser to markup_oops.plArjan van de Ven
An oops dump also contains the register values. This patch parses these for (32 bit) x86, and then annotates the disassembly with these values; this helps in analysis of the oops by the developer, for example, NULL pointer or other pointer bugs show up clearly this way.

2009-01-12script: improve markup_oops.pl to also decode oopses in modulesArjan van de Ven
There has been some light flamewar on lkml about decoding oopses in modules (as part of the crashdump flamewar). Now this isn't rocket science, just the markup_oops.pl script cheaped out and didn't handle modules. But really; a flamewar all about that?? What happened to C++ in the kernel or reading files from inside the kernel? This patch adds module support to markup_oops.pl; it's not the most pretty perl but it works for my testcases...

2009-01-06scripts: script from kerneloops.org to pretty print oops dumpsArjan van de Ven
We're struggling all the time to figure out where the code came from that oopsed.. The script below (a adaption from a script used by kerneloops.org) can help developers quite a bit, at least for non-module cases. It works and looks like this: [/home/arjan/linux]$ dmesg | perl scripts/markup_oops.pl vmlinux { struct agp_memory *memory; memory = agp_allocate_memory(agp_bridge, pg_count, type); c055c10f: 89 c2 mov %eax,%edx if (memory == NULL) c055c111: 74 19 je c055c12c <agp_allocate_memory_wrap+0x30> /* This function must only be called when current_controller != NULL */ static void agp_insert_into_pool(struct agp_memory * temp) { struct agp_memory *prev; prev = agp_fe.current_controller->pool; c055c113: a1 ec dc 8f c0 mov 0xc08fdcec,%eax *c055c118: 8b 40 10 mov 0x10(%eax),%eax <----- faulting instruction if (prev != NULL) { c055c11b: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax c055c11d: 74 05 je c055c124 <agp_allocate_memory_wrap+0x28> prev->prev = temp; c055c11f: 89 50 04 mov %edx,0x4(%eax) temp->next = prev; c055c122: 89 02 mov %eax,(%edx) } agp_fe.current_controller->pool = temp; c055c124: a1 ec dc 8f c0 mov 0xc08fdcec,%eax c055c129: 89 50 10 mov %edx,0x10(%eax) if (memory == NULL) return NULL; agp_insert_into_pool(memory); so in this case, we faulted while dereferencing agp_fe.current_controller pointer, and we get to see exactly which function and line it affects... Personally I find this very useful, and I can see value for having this script in the kernel for more-than-just-me to use. Caveats: * It only works for oopses not-in-modules * It only works nicely for kernels compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO * It's not very fast. * It only works on x86 Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
