[PATCH 06/14] perf symbols: Fix annotation of vdso

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Mon Aug 17 2015 - 15:16:49 EST


From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx>

Older kernels attempt to prelink vdso to its virtual address. To permit
annotation using objdump, the map__rip_2objdump() calculation must
result in that same address which we can infer from the start and offset
of the text section.
