Subject: [PATCH v5 10/10] perf annotate: Be robust to annotating without a thread
Date: Thu,  9 Jul 2026 22:36:28 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260710053628.1861645-10-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260710053628.1861645-1-irogers@google.com>

If a thread isn't given to map_symbol__get_arch try harder to determine
the arch for disassembly. Do this by using fallback paths such as
reading the e_machine from a map's dso. At the same time, ensure some
other uses of map_symbol thread don't assume it is non-NULL to avoid
segfaults, and handle Capstone disassembly gracefully. Since
map_symbol__get_arch supports both map_symbol and thread fallbacks,
completely remove the now redundant and fragile thread__get_arch()
function and migrate all remaining callers.
