Subject[PATCH 2/2] Support perf script -F brstackoff,dso
Date
The idea here is to make AutoFDO easier in cloud environment with ASLR.
It's easiest to show how this is useful by example. I built a small test
akin to "while(1) { do_nothing(); }" where the do_nothing function is
loaded from a dso. I sampled the execution with perf record -b.

Using the existing "brstack,dso", we get absolute addresses that are
affected by ASLR, and could be different on different hosts. The address
does not uniquely identify a branch/target in the binary:
$ ./perf script -F brstack,dso | sed 's/\/0 /\/0\n/g' \
> | grep burncpu | grep dso.so | head -n 1
0x7f967139b6aa(/tmp/burncpu/dso.so)/0x4006b1(/tmp/burncpu/exe)/P/-/-/0

Using the existing "brstacksym,dso" is a little better, because the
symbol plus offset and dso name *does* uniquely identify a branch/target
in the binary. Ultimately, however, AutoFDO wants a simple offset into
the binary, so we'd have to undo all the work perf did to symbolize in
the first place:
$ ./perf script -F brstacksym,dso | sed 's/\/0 /\/0\n/g' \
> | grep burncpu | grep dso.so | head -n 1
do_nothing+0x5(/tmp/burncpu/dso.so)/main+0x44(/tmp/burncpu/exe)/P/-/-/0

With the new "brstackoff,dso" we get what we need: a simple offset into a
specific dso/binary that uniquely identifies a branch/target:
$ ./perf script -F brstackoff,dso | sed 's/\/0 /\/0\n/g' \
> | grep burncpu | grep dso.so | head -n 1
0x6aa(/tmp/burncpu/dso.so)/0x4006b1(/tmp/burncpu/exe)/P/-/-/0

Note this patch depends on commit 9d0ec0748cd9.
