[PATCH 2/2] perf symbols: Load map before using map->map_ip()

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Thu Jan 23 2014 - 14:38:49 EST


From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

In map_groups__find_symbol() map->map_ip is used without ensuring the
map is loaded. Then the address passed to map->map_ip isn't mapped at
the first time.

E.g. below code always fails to get a symbol at the first call;

addr = /* Somewhere in the kernel text */
symbol_conf.try_vmlinux_path = true;
symbol__init();
host_machine = machine__new_host();
sym = machine__find_kernel_function(host_machine,
addr, NULL, NULL);
/* Note that machine__find_kernel_function calls
map_groups__find_symbol */

This ensures it by calling map__load before using it in
map_groups__find_symbol().
