Subject: [PATCH v6 4/7] perf annotate: Do not ignore call instruction with indirect target
Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2016 18:29:35 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1471611578-11255-5-git-send-email-ravi.bangoria@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1471611578-11255-1-git-send-email-ravi.bangoria@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Do not ignore call instruction with indirect target when its already
identified as a call. This is an extension of commit e8ea1561952b
("perf annotate: Use raw form for register indirect call instructions")
to generalize annotation for all instructions with indirect calls.

This is needed for certain powerpc call instructions that use address
in a register (such as bctrl, btarl, ...).

Apart from that, when kcore is used to disassemble function, all call
instructions were ignored. This patch will fix it as a side effect by
not ignoring them. For example,

Before (with kcore):
       mov    %r13,%rdi
       callq  0xffffffff811a7e70
     ^ jmpq   64
       mov    %gs:0x7ef41a6e(%rip),%al

After (with kcore):
       mov    %r13,%rdi
     > callq  0xffffffff811a7e70
     ^ jmpq   64
       mov    %gs:0x7ef41a6e(%rip),%al

Suggested-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
[Suggested about 'bctrl' instruction]
