Smoke tests for the tools

tests: Add smoke tests for most tools

This commit adds basic smoke tests for most tools in tools/ by
running the tool with either a short duration, or interrupting it
with a SIGINT after a short duration. The tests check the return
value from the tool to detect any Python exceptions or other
errors, but they do not read the standard error or standard output
and parse the tool's result.

Some tools are not covered by these smoke tests for reasons
documented in the test itself:

* btrfsdist and btrfsslower need btrfs
* cachetop doesn't like to run without a terminal
* dbslower, dbstat, and mysqld_qslower need a database engine
* deadlock_detector allocates a huge amount of memory
* softirqs doesn't work on new kernels and needs fixing (#1031)
* ugc needs a USDT-enabled runtime with GC probes
* zfsdist and zfsslower need zfs

This is a good place to start, but clearly for some tools,
especially those with a complex interface like trace and argdist,
we need more than just basic smoke tests.

7 years agocc: Symbol resolution with multiple executable regions per module
Sasha Goldshtein [Fri, 3 Mar 2017 20:13:31 +0000 (15:13 -0500)]
cc: Symbol resolution with multiple executable regions per module

The symbol resolution code used to assume for most purposes that
there is a single executable region per module. When there were
several, there was no crash, but symbols were not resolved correctly.
The reason is that the symbol offsets are relative to the first
executable region's start address, but bcc would resolve them
relative to the region in which they appeared. For example, given
the following regions and spans for a module libfoo.so loaded into
some process:

  1000-2000 r-xp libfoo.so
  2000-3000 rw-p libfoo.so
  3000-4000 r-xp libfoo.so
  4000-5000 r--- libfoo.so

Now, suppose there is a symbol bar() loaded at address 3500. In
the binary on disk, bar() is at offset 2500 from the beginning of
the module (but not the beginning of the 3000-4000 region!). When
we look at the candidate regions, we find 3000-4000, and discover
that 3500 lies within it. Then we subtract 3500-3000 to find the
offset from the beginning of the region, get 500, and now look
for a symbol that contains the relative address 500. As a result,
we might find some random symbol in the region 1000-2000, and
report that address 3500 corresponds to that random symbol rather
than to bar().

This commit fixes the situation by keeping only a single `Module`
instance for each module, even if that module spans multiple
executable regions. We remember all executable region start and
end ranges so we can determine whether an address (like 3500 in
the above example) lies within the module. But for the purpose of
finding the actual symbol, we need only the offset from the start
of the _first_ executable region, and then need to look up a symbol
based on that.

This was discovered and fixed while tracing .NET Core processes on
Linux, where libcoreclr.so (the main CLR binary) has several
executable regions. Resolving symbols from any but the first region
would produce totally bogus results.

7 years agocc: Retry symbol resolution using perfmap
Sasha Goldshtein [Tue, 28 Feb 2017 19:16:49 +0000 (14:16 -0500)]
cc: Retry symbol resolution using perfmap

When a symbol lies within a module, and that module doesn't have
debuginfo (or doesn't even have an ELF header), the symbol will
always be resolved as [unknown]. However, the /tmp/perf-PID.map
(perf map) for that process might actually have an entry for that
symbol, if it was dynamically generated by some external tool.
This commit changes the resolution process such that if the desired
address lies in a module but that module doesn't have debuginfo,
we keep trying to resolve it in subsequent modules (including the
perf map). If we resolve it successfully using the perf map, the
reported symbol information will have the original module's name,
so we don't lose fidelity.

The motivation for this change is the way symbols work with .NET
Core on Linux. The runtime binaries are compiled ahead-of-time to
native code, but do not have debuginfo. There is an external tool,
which generates a file similar to a perf map (albeit with relative
addresses) for these binaries. This file can then be merged into
the main perf map for the process and used for symbol resolution,
but only if we keep trying to use the perf map when the symbol is
in a previously-seen module.

file is a shared object rather than just looking at the extension
".so", which is very brittle -- and wrong.

and reading into that variable with `bpf_usdt_readarg`, declare a
