[PATCH 1/4] perf symbols: Rename kthreads to kmaps, using another abstraction for it

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Fri Dec 11 2009 - 11:51:32 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

Using a struct thread instance just to hold the kernel space maps
(vmlinux + modules) is overkill and confuses people trying to understand
the perf symbols abstractions.

The kernel maps are really present in all threads, i.e. the kernel is a
library, not a separate thread.

So introduce the 'map_groups' abstraction and use it for the kernel
maps, now in the kmaps global variable.

It, in turn, will move, together with the threads list to the perf_file
abstraction, so that we can support multiple perf_file instances, needed
by perf diff.
