      perf tools: Back [vdso] DSO with real data · 7dbf4dcf
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      Storing data for VDSO shared object, because we need it for the post
      unwind processing.
      
      The VDSO shared object is same for all process on a running system, so
      it makes no difference when we store it inside the tracer - perf.
      
      When [vdso] map memory is hit, we retrieve [vdso] DSO image and store it
      into temporary file.
      
      During the build-id processing phase, the [vdso] DSO image is stored in
      build-id db, and build-id reference is made inside perf.data. The
      build-id vdso file object is called '[vdso]'. We don't use temporary
      file name which gets removed when record is finished.
      
      During report phase the vdso build-id object is treated as any other
      build-id DSO object.
      
      Adding following API for vdso object:
      
        bool is_vdso_map(const char *filename)
          - returns true if the filename matches vdso map name
      
        struct dso *vdso__dso_findnew(struct list_head *head)
          - find/create proper vdso DSO object
      
        vdso__exit(void)
          - removes temporary VDSO image if there's any
      
      This change makes backtrace dwarf post unwind possible from [vdso] maps.
      
      Following output is current report of [vdso] sample dwarf backtrace:
