	After a long time without announces, here is pahole 1.12,
available at:

	https://fedorapeople.org/~acme/dwarves/dwarves-1.12.tar.bz2

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git	

	Some distros haven't picked 1.11, that comes with several
goodies, my bad for not having announced it at that time more widely,
the most interesting changes are listed at the end of this message,

	Please report any problems to me, I'll try and get problems
fixed and implement any nice suggestion you guys may have, time
permitting 8-)

	Thanks a lot to all that reported problems and provided
suggestions over the years, that is really appreciated and is what makes
these tools to remain useful,

	Now lets try to get the packages in the distros updated...

Regards,

- Arnaldo

The changes in 1.12 are the following:

- Add a BTF encoder (Martin KaFai Lau)

	BTF (BPF Type Format) is the meta data format which describes
the data types of BPF program/map.  Hence, it basically focus on the C
programming language which the modern BPF is primary using.  The first
use case is to provide a generic pretty print capability for a BPF map.

	BTF has its root from CTF (Compact C-Type format).

- Add Documentation on how to use the BTF encoder: (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

	Using the Linux 'perf' tools integration with BPF/llvm/clang to
show how to generate an object file that then gets its DWARF info used
to create a .BTF ELF section with this new BTF format. That augmented
eBPF ELF object file is then loaded while 'perf ftrace -g *bpf*' is used
to show the kernel BTF validation process.

- Initial support for DW_TAG_partial_unit (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

	Just by treating these sections as DW_TAG_compile_unit, which is
enough for the structs that don't contain cross-section type references
to be correctly loaded and pretty-printed with pahole.

	This doesn't affect the kernel or modules, where such DWARF
compression techniques are not used so far. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Print cacheline boundaries in multiple union members, (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

	We were showing it just on the first inner union member members,
as if it was a struct, now we restart the cacheline boundaries when
moving to print the next inner struct.

	As an example, look at 'struct audit_context' where the only
cacheline boundary printed for the following unnamed union was the first
one, for the 'socketcall' struct member, now that cacheline boundary
appears in each of the union member inner structs:

    struct audit_context {
    <SNIP>
            union {
                    struct {
                            int        nargs;                /*   824     4 */

                            /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

                            /* --- cacheline 13 boundary (832 bytes) --- */
                            long int   args[6];              /*   832    48 */
                    } socketcall;                            /*   824    56 */
                    struct {

            /* sum members: 912, holes: 2, sum holes: 8 */
            /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
    };

- Show where a struct was used, e.g.

      $ pahole -I vmlinux
    <SNIP>
      /* Used at: /home/acme/git/perf/init/main.c */
      /* <1f4a5> /home/acme/git/perf/arch/x86/include/asm/orc_types.h:85 */
      struct orc_entry {
              s16                        sp_offset;            /*     0     2 */
              s16                        bp_offset;            /*     2     2 */
     <SNIP>

- Show offsets at union members (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, suggested by Matthew Wilcox):

	In complex structs with multiple complex unions figuring out the
offset for a given union member is difficult, as one needs to figure out
the union, go to the end of it to see the offset.

    This way, for instance, the Linux kernel's 'struct page' shows now as:

    struct page {
            long unsigned int          flags;                /*     0     8 */
            union {
                    struct address_space * mapping;          /*     8     8 */
                    void *             s_mem;                /*     8     8 */
                    atomic_t           compound_mapcount;    /*     8     4 */
            };                                               /*     8     8 */
            union {
                    long unsigned int  index;                /*    16     8 */
                    void *             freelist;             /*    16     8 */
            };                                               /*    16     8 */
            union {
                    long unsigned int  counters;             /*    24     8 */
                    struct {
                            union {

- Search and use running kernel vmlinux when no file is passed (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

	Now it is possible to use it just as:

    $ pahole -C sk_buff_head
    struct sk_buff_head {
            struct sk_buff *           next;                 /*     0     8 */
            struct sk_buff *           prev;                 /*     8     8 */
            __u32                      qlen;                 /*    16     4 */
            spinlock_t                 lock;                 /*    20     4 */

            /* size: 24, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */
            /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
    };

	This will look at /sys/kernel/notes, find the running kernel
build-id, and then search the usual locations (vmlinux,
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/vmlinux, the debuginfo package paths, etc)
to find the matching vmlinux with the DWARF info to use. Build-ids are
now ubiquitous, so this shortens a the most common binary used.

- Document 'pahole --hex' in the man page (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

	This option shows offsets and sizes in hexadecimal, helping to
correlate with reports using that notation.

	E.g.:

    $ pahole --hex -C sk_buff_head
    struct sk_buff_head {
            struct sk_buff *           next;                 /*     0   0x8 */
            struct sk_buff *           prev;                 /*   0x8   0x8 */
            __u32                      qlen;                 /*  0x10   0x4 */
            spinlock_t                 lock;                 /*  0x14   0x4 */

            /* size: 24, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */
            /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
    };

    dwarves_fprintf: Find holes when expanding types
    
    When --expand_types/-E is used we go on expanding internal types, and
    when doing that for structs we were not looking for holes in them, only
    on the main struct, fix it.
    
    With that we can see these extra holes in a expanded Linux kernel's
    'struct task_struct':

    dwarves_fprintf: Find holes on structs embedded in other structs
    
    Take 'struct task_struct' in the Linux kernel, these fields:
    
            /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */
            struct sched_entity        se;                   /*   128   448 */
    
            /* XXX last struct has 24 bytes of padding */
    
            /* --- cacheline 9 boundary (576 bytes) --- */
            struct sched_rt_entity     rt;                   /*   576    48 */
    
    The sched_entity struct has 24 bytes of padding, and that info would
    only appear when printing 'struct task_struct' if class__find_holes()
    had previously been run on 'struct sched_entity' which wasn't always the
    case, make sure that happens.
    
    This results in this extra stat being printed for 'struct task_struct':
    
            /* paddings: 4, sum paddings: 38 */

    I.e. the boundary detection was being reset at each expanded struct, do the math globally,
    using the member offset, that was already done globally and correctly.

Missing announcements can be forgiven. But there are automatic tools 
that scrape the web for updates (usually something tries to scan
the enclosing directory of the last known URL), so uploads are 
essential.
Since 1.11 was never uploaded, it did not find its way..
(One had to grab a tarball gitweb generated from the tag,
but had to know there was a 1.11, too).


Can we have signatures for the release tarballs?
(Only if you think it's worth having.)

Here's one (or six):


$ cat x.cpp 
#include <utility>
struct F {
        template<typename T, typename... A> F(T &, T &&, A &&...x) { }
        F clone() const && { int q; return F(q, 3, 4); }
        int xpub() { return xprot(); }
        protected:
        int xprot() { return xpriv(); }
        private:
        int xpriv() { return 0; }
};
int z;
F f(z,2,3,4);
int main()
{
        f.xpub();
        std::move(f).clone();
}

Yeah, I think I can create a file with sha256 for the tarball and sign
it, just like I signed the v1.12 tag:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git/tag/?h=v1.12

Yeah, C++ has been a second class citizen for all pahole's life, with
progress being made mostly when I collaborate with folks at the ATLAS
project at CERN that had tons of C++ code being ported from 32-bit based
clusters to 64-bit ones.

I'll try to work some time on the reports below to see if we get a bit
more progress there.
