looks like at this time not all dsos on the list have
the buildids read..

I tried to put in here the perf_session__read_build_ids call
but it keeps showing me warning below:

> + pr_warning("The perf.data come from different user binary. "
> + "The user space symbol offset may vary for different binaries.\n");

for following workload:

[jolsa@krava perf]$ ./perf record ls
...
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (~540 samples) ]
[jolsa@krava perf]$ ./perf record ls
...
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (~540 samples) ]
[jolsa@krava perf]$ ./perf diff -s symoff
The perf.data come from different user binary. The user space symbol offset may vary for different binaries.
# Event 'cycles'
...
