Revision 85127775a65fc58e69af0c44513937d471ccbe7b authored by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo on 06 August 2019, 14:24:09 UTC, committed by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo on 08 August 2019, 18:40:56 UTC
The code to disassemble BPF programs uses binutil's disassembling routines, and those use in turn fprintf to print to a memstream FILE, adding a newline at the end of each line, which ends up confusing the TUI routines called from: annotate_browser__write() annotate_line__write() annotate_browser__printf() ui_browser__vprintf() SLsmg_vprintf() The SLsmg_vprintf() function in the slang library gets confused with the terminating newline, so make the disasm_line__parse() function that parses the lines produced by the BPF specific disassembler (that uses binutil's libopcodes) and the lines produced by the objdump based disassembler used for everything else (and that doesn't adds this terminating newline) trim the end of the line in addition of the beginning. This way when disasm_line->ops.raw, i.e. for instructions without a special scnprintf() method, we'll not have that \n getting in the way of filling the screen right after the instruction with spaces to avoid leaving what was on the screen before and thus garbling the annotation screen, breaking scrolling, etc. Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Song Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> Fixes: 6987561c9e86 ("perf annotate: Enable annotation of BPF programs") Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-unbr5a5efakobfr6rhxq99ta@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
