[PATCH 02/12] perf symbols: Store vdso buildid unconditionally

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Mon May 16 2016 - 22:47:45 EST


From: He Kuang <hekuang@xxxxxxxxxx>

When unwinding callchains on a different machine, vdso info should be
available so the unwind process won't be interrupted if address falls
into vdso region. But in most cases, the addresses of sample events are
not in vdso range, the buildid of a zero hit vdso won't be stored into
perf.data.

This patch stores vdso buildid regardless of whether the vdso is hit or
not.
