      perf tools: Make vmlinux short name more like kallsyms short name · 96d78059
      Namhyung Kim 提交于
      The previous patch changed kernel dso name from '[kernel.kallsyms]' to
      vmlinux.  However it might add confusion to old users accustomed to the
      old name.  So change the short name to '[kernel.vmlinux]' to reduce such
      confusion.

      perf tools: Fix build-id matching on vmlinux · b837a8bd
      Namhyung Kim 提交于
      There's a problem on finding correct kernel symbols when perf report
      runs on a different kernel.  Although a part of the problem was solved
      by the prior commit 0a7e6d1b ("perf tools: Check recorded kernel
      version when finding vmlinux"), there's a remaining problem still.
      
      When perf records samples, it synthesizes the kernel map using
      machine__mmap_name() and ref_reloc_sym like "[kernel.kallsyms]_text".
      You can easily see it using 'perf report -D' command.
      
      After finishing record, it goes through the recorded events to find
      maps/dsos actually used.  And then record build-id info of them.
      
      During this process, it needs to load symbols in a dso and it'd call
      dso__load_vmlinux_path() since the default value of the symbol_conf.
      try_vmlinux_path is true.  However it changes dso->long_name to a real
      path of the vmlinux file (e.g. /lib/modules/3.16.4/build/vmlinux) if one
      is running on a custom kernel.
      
      It resulted in that perf report reads the build-id of the vmlinux, but
      cannot use it since it only knows about the [kernel.kallsyms] map.  It
      then falls back to possible vmlinux paths by using the recorded kernel
      version (in case of a recent version) or a running kernel silently.
      
      Even with the recent tools, this still has a possibility of breaking
      the result.  As the build directory is a symbolic link, if one built a
      new kernel in the same directory with different source/config, the old
      link to vmlinux will point the new file.  So it's absolutely needed to
      use build-id when finding a kernel image.
      
      In this patch, it's now changed to try to search a kernel dso in the
      existing dso list which was constructed during build-id table parsing
      so it'll always have a build-id.  If not found, search "[kernel.kallsyms]".
