Subject[PATCH] Identify which executable object the userspace address belongs to. Store thread group leader id, and use it to lookup the address in the process's map. We could have looked up the address on thread's map, but the thread might not exist by the tim
Date
Example usage:
mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
echo sym-userobj >iter_ctrl
echo sched_switch >current_tracer
echo 1 >tracing_enabled
cat trace_pipe >/tmp/trace&
.... run application ...
echo 0 >tracing_enabled
cat /tmp/trace

You'll see stack entries like:
/lib/libpthread-2.7.so[+0xd370]
You can convert them to function/line using:
addr2line -fie /lib/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370
Or
addr2line -fie /usr/lib/debug/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370

For non-PIC/PIE executables this won't work:
a.out[+0x73b]
You need to run the following: addr2line -fie a.out 0x40073b
(where 0x400000 is the default load address of a.out)

userstacktrace - This option changes the trace.
It records a stacktrace of the current userspace thread.

+ sym-userobj - when user stacktrace are enabled, look up which object the
+ address belongs to, and print a relative address
+ This is especially useful when ASLR is on, otherwise you don't
+ get a chance to resolve the address to object/file/line after the app is no
+ longer running
+
+ The lookup is performed when you read trace,trace_pipe,latency_trace. Example:
+
+ a.out-1623 [000] 40874.465068: /root/a.out[+0x480] <-/root/a.out[+0
+x494] <- /root/a.out[+0x4a8] <- /lib/libc-2.7.so[+0x1e1a6]

sched-tree - TBD (any users??)
