    perf symbols: Ignore mapping symbols on ARM · 696b97a5
    Dave Martin 提交于
    ARM ELF files use symbols with special names $a, $t, $d to identify regions of
    ARM code, Thumb code and data within code sections.  This can cause confusing
    output from the perf tools, especially for partially stripped binaries, or
    binaries containing user-added zero-sized symbols (which may occur in
    hand-written assembler which hasn't been fully annotated with .size
    directives).
    
    This patch filters out these symbols at load time.
