how to see glibc symbol when using perf to profile programs

Hi, everyone~ recently I use perf to see the bottleneck of my program. 
But I encounter a problem: I cann't use which function in glibc was called.
The command I use were like follows:
perf record -g ./wc ~/data/wc/10MB.txt -n 1
perf report -g
And the results I get were like follows:
48.13%  wc  libc-2.15.so                 [.] 0x000000000008c5a9
12.29%  wc  [kernel.kallsyms]         [k] clear_page_c
Also when I enter the libc-2.15.so, the results were as follows:
48.13%  wc  libc-2.15.so                 [.] 0x000000000008c5a9         
   + 0x7f5adf1a05bd                                                       
   + 0x7f5adf1a05a9                                                        
   + 0x7f5adf245e5e                                                        
     0x7f5adf26231e                                                        
     0x1                                                                   
     0x7f5adf2622e6                                                        
     0x1         
I cann't see which functions in glibc was called. 
Do anyone who know how to fix that problem?
Thanks a lot~
Emily

Now I solve this problem by using the following two commands:
sudo apt-get install libc6-dbg
sudo apt-get source libc6-dev
But I got another problem, how to know which code trigger page fault in 
Perf?
Thanks and regards~
