Subject: [PATCH] perf: add --symfs option to perf annotate
Date: Sat, 30 Jul 2011 01:20:40 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110729232040.GA21838@quad> (raw)


If you have --symfs in perf report, then you also need it
for perf annotate. This allows off-box assembly level analysis
of perf.data samples.

This patch complements:

commit ec5761eab318e50e69fcf8e63e9edaef5949c067
Author: David Ahern <daahern@cisco.com>
Date:   Thu Dec 9 13:27:07 2010 -0700
