perf tools: Support 'srccode' output
When looking at PT or brstackinsn traces with 'perf script' it can be very useful to see the source code. This adds a simple facility to print them with 'perf script', if the information is available through dwarf % perf record ... % perf script -F insn,ip,sym,srccode ... 4004c6 main 5 for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) 4004cd main 5 for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) 4004c6 main 5 for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) 4004cd main 5 for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) 4004cd main 5 for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) 4004cd main 5 for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) 4004cd main 5 for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) 4004cd main 5 for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) 4004b3 main 6 v++; % perf record -b ... % perf script -F insn,ip,sym,srccode,brstackinsn ... main+22: 0000000000400543 insn: e8 ca ff ff ff # PRED |18 f1(); f1: 0000000000400512 insn: 55 |10 { 0000000000400513 insn: 48 89 e5 0000000000400516 insn: b8 00 00 00 00 |11 f2(); 000000000040051b insn: e8 d6 ff ff ff # PRED f2: 00000000004004f6 insn: 55 |5 { 00000000004004f7 insn: 48 89 e5 00000000004004fa insn: 8b 05 2c 0b 20 00 |6 c = a / b; 0000000000400500 insn: 8b 0d 2a 0b 20 00 0000000000400506 insn: 99 0000000000400507 insn: f7 f9 0000000000400509 insn: 89 05 29 0b 20 00 000000000040050f insn: 90 |7 } 0000000000400510 insn: 5d 0000000000400511 insn: c3 # PRED f1+14: 0000000000400520 insn: b8 00 00 00 00 |12 f2(); 0000000000400525 insn: e8 cc ff ff ff # PRED f2: 00000000004004f6 insn: 55 |5 { 00000000004004f7 insn: 48 89 e5 00000000004004fa insn: 8b 05 2c 0b 20 00 |6 c = a / b; Not supported for callchains currently, would need some layout changes there.
