[PATCH 1/8] perf inject: Hit all DSOs for AUX data in JIT and other cases

From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Thu Mar 03 2016 - 06:54:41 EST


Currently, when injecting build ids, if there is AUX data
then 'perf inject' hits all DSOs because it is not known
which DSOs the trace data would hit.

That needs to be done for JIT injection also, and in fact
there is no reason to distinguish what kind of injection
is being done. That is, any time there is AUX data and
the HEADER_BUID_ID feature flag is set, and the AUX data
is not being processed, then hit all DSOs. This patch
does that.
