    perf tools: Back [vdso] DSO with real data · 7dbf4dcf

    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:
