[PATCH 8/9] perf symbols: Fixup vsyscall maps

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Jan 27 2010 - 18:08:26 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

While debugging a problem reported by Pekka Enberg by printing the IP
and all the maps for a thread when we don't find a map for an IP I
noticed that dso__load_sym needs to fixup these extra maps it creates to
hold symbols in different ELF sections than the main kernel one.

Now we're back showing things like:

[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf report | grep vsyscall
0.02% mutt [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet
0.01% named [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet
0.01% NetworkManager [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet
0.01% gconfd-2 [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_0 [.] vgettimeofday
0.01% hald-addon-rfki [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet
0.00% dbus-daemon [kernel.kallsyms].vsyscall_fn [.] vread_hpet
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#
