Hi Masami,
Have you ever tried using 'perf probe' on ubuntu?
acme@ubuntu:~/git/linux$ sudo apt-cache search linux-image-$(uname -r)
linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic - Linux kernel image for version 4.4.0 on
64 bit x86 SMP
linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic-dbgsym - Linux kernel debug image for
version 4.4.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP
acme@ubuntu:~/git/linux$
acme@ubuntu:~/git/linux$
So those are installed, but then I try:
root@ubuntu:~# perf probe -vvv -L getname_flags
Looking at the vmlinux_path (8 entries long)

Have to dig deeper to see where the source code is, ideas?

It shows the "path" is ;

So, would you have the source code under this temporary directory?
(yeah, I guess No)
Anyway, ubuntu has "linux-source" package, or apt source linux-image-`uname -r`
will give you the source tree in current dir.
After you get a proper kernel source code, you can use -s to show source code.
-s, --source <directory>
path to kernel source
I ensured it is working correctly by below command.
$ perf probe -s ./linux-4.4.0 -L getname_flags
Enjoy! :)

Ah, why do we repeat the above line that many times? Are we somehow
reading this compile unit that many times?!?

No, and I couldn't find a package that had it

Ok, how about telling the user this package is needed, since we can
figure out the distro and the package name? Couldn't it figure out where
the source code is and also not require using '-s'?

Yes, because the getname_flags is inlined by compiler, depends on the
parameter, some lines in the function are never compiled at some call
points. In this case, we have to check every call points so that all
the available lines are found.
BTW, "this CU" has no meaning, it should show the diename, or remove
the useless message.

Did we do that already?

No, actually, ubuntu/debian are not providing kernel source tree package
as redhat/fedora do. User can only download source tarball and extract
it under current working directory. There seems no standard directory
where the source code is extracted to. I think it's debian/ubuntu's
packaging policy.
Anyway, even though we can provide how-to guide for them via Documentation.
I think it's better way because we also have to add some entries to
apt.conf for installing kernel debuginfo.
Thank you,
