This removes the ovelapping of vmlinux addresses with modules,
using the ELF section name when using --vmlinux and creating a
unique DSO name when using /proc/kallsyms ([kernel].N).
This is done by creating multiple 'struct map' instances for
address ranges backed by DSOs that have just the symbols for that
range and a name that is derived from the ELF section name.o
Now it is possible to ask for just the symbols in some particular
kernel section:
$ perf report -m --vmlinux ../build/tip-recvmmsg/vmlinux \
--dsos [kernel].vsyscall_fn | head -15
52.73% Xorg [.] vread_hpet
18.61% firefox [.] vread_hpet
14.50% npviewer.bin [.] vread_hpet
6.83% compiz [.] vread_hpet
5.73% glxgears [.] vread_hpet
0.63% java [.] vread_hpet
0.30% gnome-terminal [.] vread_hpet
0.23% perf [.] vread_hpet
0.18% xchat [.] vread_hpet
$
Now we don't have to first lookup the list of modules and then, if
it fails, vmlinux symbols, its just a simple lookup for the map
then the symbols, just like for threads.
Reports generated using /proc/kallsyms and --vmlinux should provide
the same results, modulo the DSO name for sections other than
".text".
But they don't right now because things like:
ffffffff81011c20-ffffffff81012068 system_call
ffffffff81011c30-ffffffff81011c9b system_call_after_swapgs
ffffffff81011c9c-ffffffff81011cb6 system_call_fastpath
ffffffff81011cb7-ffffffff81011cbb ret_from_sys_call
I.e. overlapping symbols, again some ASM special case that we have
to fixup.
