[PATCH 7/9] perf probe: Do not rely on map__load() filter to find symbols
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Jan 21 2015 - 10:03:19 EST
From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@xxxxxxxxxx>
The find_probe_trace_events_from_map() searches matching symbol from a
map (so from a backing dso). For uprobes, it'll create a new map (and
dso) and loads it using a filter. It's a little bit inefficient in that
it'll read out the symbol table everytime but works well anyway.
For kprobes however, it'll reuse existing kernel map which might be
loaded before. In this case map__load() just returns with no result.
It makes kprobes always failed to find symbol even if it exists in the
map (dso).
To fix it, use map__find_symbol_by_name() instead. It'll load a map
with full symbols and sorts them by name. It needs to search sibing
nodes since there can be multiple (local) symbols with same name.
