[PATCH] perf: fix issue with binaries using 16-bytes buildids (v2)

From: Stephane Eranian
Date: Fri Oct 22 2010 - 11:35:35 EST


Buildid can vary in size. According to the man page of ld, buildid can
be 160 bits (sha1) or 128 bits (md5, uuid). Perf assumes buildid size
of 20 bytes (160 bits) regardless. When dealing with md5 buildids, it
would thus read more than needed and that would cause mismatches and
samples without symbols.

This patch fixes this by taking into account the actual buildid size
as encoded int he section header. The leftover bytes are also cleared.

This second version fixes a minor issue with the memset() base position.
