[PATCH 1/4] scripts/decode_stacktrace: skip missing symbols

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Mon Jun 22 2020 - 08:33:51 EST


For now script turns missing symbols into '0' and make bogus decode.
Skip them instead. Also simplify parsing output of 'nm'.

Before:

$ echo 'xxx+0x0/0x0' | ./scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh vmlinux ""
xxx (home/khlebnikov/src/linux/./arch/x86/include/asm/processor.h:398)

After:

$ echo 'xxx+0x0/0x0' | ./scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh vmlinux ""
xxx+0x0/0x0
