From 15eca306ec95e164d05457f9f27c722f69af6d18 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masami Hiramatsu Date: Wed, 21 Apr 2010 15:56:24 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] perf probe: Fix to use symtab only if no debuginfo Fix perf probe to use symtab only if there is no debuginfo, because debuginfo has more information than symtab. If we can't find a function in debuginfo, we never find it in symtab.
