      nm only shows the linked address, but the traced address are the
      loaded address in memory. So, they're different.
      For example:
      trace@trace:~/cc$ nm instrument | grep 'add3\|main'
      00000000000011a9 T add3
      00000000000011ee T main

@Christophe:
    Do you mean that babeltrace2 can help get the function name and call site offset?
