FWIW i posted a similar patchkit a long time ago
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20171128002321.2878-13-andi@firstfloor.org/
It was on my list to resurrect that, it's great that you are doing
something similar.
The latest iteration (not posted) was here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-misc.git/log/?h=perf/var-resolve-7
The main difference seems to be that mine was more for perf script
(e.g. i supported PT decoding), while you are more focused on sampling.
I relied on the kprobes/uprobes engine, which unfortunately was always
quite slow and had many limitations.
Perhaps it would be possible merge the useful parts of the two approaches?
