Subject: [PATCH 07/10] perf symbols: Add symbol for .plt header
Date: Fri, 20 Jan 2023 14:34:53 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230120123456.12449-8-adrian.hunter@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230120123456.12449-1-adrian.hunter@intel.com>
perf expands the _init symbol over .plt because there are no PLT symbols
at that point, but then dso__synthesize_plt_symbols() creates them.
Fix by truncating the previous symbol and inserting a symbol for .plt
header.
Example:
Before:
$ perf test --dso `which uname` -v Symbols
74: Symbols :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 191028
Problems creating module maps, continuing anyway...
Testing /usr/bin/uname
Overlapping symbols:
2000-25f0 g _init
2040-2050 g free@plt
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Symbols: FAILED!
$ perf test --dso `which uname` -vv Symbols 2>/tmp/cmp1.txt
After:
$ perf test --dso `which uname` -v Symbols
74: Symbols :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 194291
Testing /usr/bin/uname
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
Symbols: Ok
$ perf test --dso `which uname` -vv Symbols 2>/tmp/cmp2.txt
$ diff /tmp/cmp1.txt /tmp/cmp2.txt
