perf probe: Fix to get ummapped symbol address on kernel
Fix to get correctly unmapped symbol address on kernel. This allows us to probe on syscall symbols which are aliases of SyS_ functions with using debuginfo. Without this fix: ---- # ./perf probe -a sys_write Failed to find debug information for address 3b0100 Probe point 'sys_write' not found. Error: Failed to add events. ---- The address 0x3b0100 is a mapped address, and not usable in debuginfo. With this fix: ---- # ./perf probe -a sys_write Added new event: probe:sys_write (on sys_write) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:sys_write -aR sleep 1 ---- Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150322114022.32639.19096.stgit@localhost.localdomain Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
