Subject: [PATCH 19/20] perf probe: Do not use dwfl_module_addrsym if dwarf_diename finds symbol name
Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2014 18:24:22 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1410989063-14207-20-git-send-email-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1410989063-14207-1-git-send-email-acme@kernel.org>

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

Do not use dwfl_module_addrsym if dwarf_diename can find the symbol
name, since dwfl_module_addrsym can be failed on shared libraries.

Without this patch
  ----
  $ perf probe -x ../lib/traceevent/libtraceevent.so -V create_arg_op
  Failed to find symbol at 0x11df1
  Failed to find the address of create_arg_op
    Error: Failed to show vars.
  ----
With this patch
  ----
  $ perf probe -x ../lib/traceevent/libtraceevent.so -V create_arg_op
  Available variables at create_arg_op
          @<create_arg_op+0>
                  enum filter_op_type     btype
                  struct filter_arg*      arg
  ----
