[PATCH 1/4] scripts/checkstack.pl: don't display $dre as different entity

[PATCH 1/4] scripts/checkstack.pl: don't display $dre as different entity

[Maninder Singh]

currnetly script prints stack usage for functions
in two ways:($re and $dre)

dre breaks sorting mechanism.
0xffffa00011f26f88 sunxi_mux_clk_setup.isra.0 [vmlinux]:Dynamic (0x140)
..
0xffffa00011f27210 sunxi_divs_clk_setup [vmlinux]:      Dynamic (0x1d0)

so we can print it in decimal only.

Also address before function name is changed to function
start address rather than stack consumption address.
Because in next patch, arm has two ways to use stack
which can be clubbed and printed in one function only.

All symbols whose stack by adding(re and dre) is greater than
100, will be printed.

0xffffa00011f2720c0 sunxi_divs_clk_setup [vmlinux]:     464
...
0xffffa00011f26f840 sunxi_mux_clk_setup.isra.0 [vmlinux]:320

[PATCH 3/4] scripts/checkstack.pl: add arm push handling for stack usage

[Maninder Singh]

To count stack usage of push {*, fp, ip, lr, pc} instruction in ARM,
if FRAME POINTER is enabled.
e.g. c01f0d48: e92ddff0 push {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r9, sl, fp, ip, lr, pc}

c01f0d50 <Y>:
c01f0d44:       e1a0c00d        mov     ip, sp
c01f0d48:       e92ddff0        push    {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r9, sl, fp, ip, lr, pc}
c01f0d4c:       e24cb004        sub     fp, ip, #4
c01f0d50:       e24dd094        sub     sp, sp, #448    ; 0x1C0 

$ cat dump | scripts/checkstack.pl arm
0xc01f0d50 Y []:                                        448

added subroutine frame work for this.
After change:
0xc01f0d500 Y []:                                       492

[PATCH 4/4] scripts/checkstack.pl: fix arm sp regex

[Maninder Singh]

if objdump has below entries;
c01ed608 <X>:
c01ed614:       e24ddff7        sub     sp, sp, #120    ; 0x78

c01f0d50:       e24dd094        sub     sp, sp, #140    ; 0x8c

scripts fails to read stack usage.
so making regex $re for ARM similar to aarch64

$total_size is undefined for the first function.
I think 0 is implied, but is it clearer to initialize it here?

$total_size = 0;

Hmm, I think this 'next' is unlikely to happen.
But, it happened, the same line would be pushed twice.

Maybe, is it better to move 'next it' above
the 'if ($total_size > 100)' check?

For consistency, I personally prefer adding ';'
to every statement even for the last one in the block...


Is this simpler ?

                  $total_size += $size;

This is a noise change.

You can do this in 1/4 if you want to.

I do not mean to block this patch, but
some people still invest efforts to improve this script.
So, please let me ask this question.

Do you know CONFIG_FRAME_WARN?

Commit 35bb5b1e0e84cfa1a8906f7e6a77f391ff315791
mentioned -Wframe-larger-than should obsolete
make checkstack.

Now, -Wframe-larger-than is supported by
both minimal version of GCC and Clang.

I know checkstack.pl dumps the stack size
of functions, which is different from what
-Wframe-larger-than does, but the goal is
quite similar, I think.

I just wondered if we need both.

                  $total_size += $size;

           Or

                  $total_size += &$sub($line);

                   then, delete $size.

This looks good to me, and it is a bug fix.

Just a question about the SOB.


Maninder Singh is the author and also the submitter, right?

What does "Signed-off-by: Vaneet Narang <v.narang@samsung.com>" mean?

Co-developed-by or something else?

Yes All 4 patches are co-developed by Vaneet and me.
we were checking stack usage for arm and AARCH64 and found
some changes in scrips which can help others also.

Thanks,

OK. Then,

Co-developed-by: Vaneet Narang <v.narang@samsung.com>

is the correct tag.


Signed-off-by is added when the patch is forwarded by
somebody else. This is not the case.

 Yes we know this and we use it to get compilation error if some function is using more stack.
This config will report issue at compilation.

We feel purpose of this patch is different from CONFIG_FRAME_WARN.
This patch is specific to ARM and fixes bug in stack usage calculation.

We were comparing stack usage of ARM with ARM64 and found big gap.
We realised ARM is not calculating stack usage properly.
It only considers stack used by local variables but it doesn't consider 
stack used to store register context at the start of functions. 
This is not the case with ARM64. It seems ARM64 considers both.

We found even stack variables are of same size on both target but 
arm64 stack usage is high.

Considering below assembly, Actual stack usage is 492 but current script reports 448.
push instruction uses 44 bytes of stack to take backup of registers as per ARM calling
convention.

c01f0d44:       e1a0c00d        mov     ip, sp
c01f0d48:       e92ddff0        push    {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r9, sl, fp, ip, lr, pc}
c01f0d4c:       e24cb004        sub     fp, ip, #4
c01f0d50:       e24dd094        sub     sp, sp, #448    ; 0x1C0

Thanks & Regards,
Vaneet Narang
