Hi He,

        While testing a patch by Peter Zijlstra to the --stdio
annotation code I came accross these messages:

[acme@jouet linux]$ perf annotate __vdso_gettimeofday 2>&1 | head -20

And bisected it down to:

commit 52ffe0ff02fc053a025c381d5808e9ecd3206dfe
Author: He Kuang <heku...@huawei.com>

     perf callchain: Support x86 target platform
Support x86(32-bit) cross platform callchain unwind. Signed-off-by: He Kuang <heku...@huawei.com>
     Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jo...@kernel.org>

--------------------------------------------------

The source code where this message is emitted is:

struct unwind_libunwind_ops __weak *local_unwind_libunwind_ops;
<SNIP>
unwind__prepare_access()
{
        struct unwind_libunwind_ops *ops = local_unwind_libunwind_ops;
<SNIP>
        if (!strcmp(arch, "x86")) {
                 if (dso_type != DSO__TYPE_64BIT)
                         ops = x86_32_unwind_libunwind_ops;
         }
<SNIP>
         if (!ops) {
                 pr_err("unwind: target platform=%s is not supported\n", arch);
                 return -1;
         }

So, this should fallback to local_unwind_libunwind_ops, why is this not being
set properly?

Feature detection says:

...                     libunwind: [ on  ]
...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on  ]

This is:

[acme@jouet linux]$ uname -a
Linux jouet 4.5.7-300.fc24.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Jun 8 18:12:45 UTC 2016 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linuxo

Can you please check this?

I think it's because of the perf.data contains both 32bit/64bit
threads while perf is only build with local unwind(unwind for
x86_64).

Then I have a simple test for this:

  $ file hello_x86_64
hello_x86_64: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 3.0.0, BuildID[sha1]=adc94932cbcb2be80f3b62df530b8c109f40478a, not strippe

  $ file hello_i686
hello_i686: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 4.5.0, not stripped

  $ perf record -o perf.data.x86_64_singlethread    hello_x86_64
  $ perf record -o perf.data.x86_64_allcpu       -a hello_x86_64
  $ perf record -o perf.data.i686_singlethread      hello_i686
  $ perf record -o perf.data.i686_allcpu         -a hello_i686

Now I get 4 perf.data files:

  ID    name                32bit        64bit

  1    perf.data.x86_64_singlethread    N        Y
  2    perf.data.x86_64_allcpu        N        Y
  3    perf.data.i686_singlethread    Y        N
  4    perf.data.i686_allcpu        Y        Y

Because perf only supports local unwind(for x86_64), cases
contain 32bit thread should show the warnings, i.e. case3 and
case4. And perf.data contains only 32bit threads will show nothing
except the warnings while the one contains both 32bit/64bit will
show warnings for 32bit thread and annoate the 64bit thread.

Then check:

  $ perf annotate -i perf.data.x86_64_singlethread

           :
           :      volatile int z = 0;
           :
           :      int fib(int x)

  $ perf annotate -i perf.data.i686_singlethread

  $ perf annotate -i perf.data.i686_allcpu

  :      }

The result is the same as we expected, so if your case matches
the case4, the result is right. But I think we can improve the
warning message for not confusing the users.

Thank you.
