Subject[PATCH 12/14] perf probe: Use right type to access array elements
Date
From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Current 'perf probe' converts the type of array-elements incorrectly. It
always converts the types as a pointer of array. This passes the "array"
type DIE to the type converter so that it can get correct "element of
array" type DIE from it.

E.g.
====
$ cat hello.c
#include <stdio.h>

void foo(int a[])
{
printf("%d\n", a[1]);
}

void main()
{
int a[3] = {4, 5, 6};
printf("%d\n", a[0]);
foo(a);
}

$ gcc -g hello.c -o hello
$ perf probe -x ./hello -D "foo a[1]"
====

Without this fix, above outputs
====
p:probe_hello/foo /tmp/hello:0x4d3 a=+4(-8(%bp)):u64
====
The "u64" means "int *", but a[1] is "int".

With this,
====
p:probe_hello/foo /tmp/hello:0x4d3 a=+4(-8(%bp)):s32
====
So, "int" correctly converted to "s32"
