[PATCH 1/4] perf annotate: Remove needless regular expression for filename:linenr

From: Taeung Song
Date: Wed Feb 22 2017 - 05:09:00 EST


The commit e592488c01d5 ("perf annotate: Support source line
numbers in annotate") support source line numbers in annotate.

But we can get filename:line number by symbol__get_source_line()
Furthermore, the way can't exactly match source code lines
to actual line numbers.

For example,
Actual source code is as below

...
21 };
22
23 unsigned int limited_wgt;
24
25 unsigned int get_cond_maxprice(int wgt)
26 {
...

However, the output of annotate with the way about regmatch
is as below.

4 Disassembly of section .text:

6 0000000000400966 <get_cond_maxprice>:
7 get_cond_maxprice():
26 };

28 unsigned int limited_wgt;

30 unsigned int get_cond_maxprice(int wgt)
31 {

The root cause is from objdump -S.
Because the source code of objdump used to print more code lines
than actual one code line according to a particular line number.
In the near future, I'll fix the problem about line numbers.
