[PATCH 4/7] perf inject: Do not load map/dso when injecting build-id

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Wed Sep 23 2020 - 04:06:06 EST


No need to load symbols in a DSO when injecting build-id. I guess the
reason was to check the DSO is a special file like anon files. Use
some helper functions in map.c to check them before reading build-id.
Also pass sample event's cpumode to a new build-id event.

It brought a speedup in the benchmark of 22 -> 18 msec on my laptop.

# Running 'internals/inject-build-id' benchmark:
Average build-id injection took: 18.259 msec (+- 0.051 msec)
Average time per event: 1.790 usec (+- 0.005 usec)

Also note that, it reduces memory footprint of perf inject. I saw
that max RSS went down by ~27MB when processing ~300MB data file.
