使用 GDB 以樹狀方式將函式流程印出
若在 Linux Kernel 內，想追蹤每個函式的呼叫流程，第一個會想到的工具應該是 ftrace；那針對 user space 的程式是否有類似的東西？用 gdb，再加上一些簡單 script 就可以完成。
以 xdotool 為例，舉例來說，xdotool getmouselocation 將會得當前鼠標的位置，正常狀況下輸出結果如下：
$ xdotool getmouselocation
findclient: 65011716
findclient: 65011716
x:2769 y:656 screen:0 window:65011716
若搭配本文將介紹的方法，輸出結果如下：
(gdb) r

是不是整個程式內函式呼叫順序都一目瞭然。
快速開始
先安裝 debug symbol，可以參考這裡將 debug symbol 來源設好。 接著安裝這 2 個套件 libxdo2-dbgsym xdotool-dbgsym
$ sudo apt-get install libxdo2-dbgsym xdotool-dbgsym
$ apt-get source xdotool
$ cd path/to/xdotool/source
準備工作完成。把 gdb 跑起來吧！
$ gdb -x supertrace.gdb --args xdotool getmouselocation (gdb) c Starting program: /usr/bin/xdotool getmouselocation [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1". | main at xdotool.c:287 | _start at ??:0 | __libc_start_main at ??:0 | xdotool_main at xdotool.c:290 | xdotool_main at xdotool.c:316 | args_main at xdotool.c:456 | args_main at xdotool.c:493 以下略...
###深入一點
GDB 指令檔：supertrace.gdb
set pagination off
b main
r
python
sys.path.insert(0, './')
import supertrace
end
breakall
set $x=$lastbp()
commands 1-$x
silent
supertrace
cont
end
裡頭會載入 supertrace.py （本文末），supertrace.py 內，提供了 2 個指令 breakall and supertrace 和 1 個函式 lastbp。breakall 會把所有有 debug info 的函式當做追蹤目標，指令 xdotool 因為安裝了 xdotool-dbgsym 確定有 debug info 外，shared library 的部分可以用 info sharedlibrary 來觀察：
(gdb) info sharedlibrary

(*): Shared library is missing debugging information.
值得注意的是若是觀察的 library 太多，會因為 debug info 太大，啟動速度變很慢。接著在 supertrace.gdb 裡用了 lastbp 函式取得最後的 breakpoint number，等會設 breakpoint command 會用。
最後，在 breakpoint command 裡，最重要的就是 supertrace 這個命令，它主要會收集 backtrace 的輸出，並拿來跟之前輸出比較，將最後結果印出。
