From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>
Fix to get correctly unmapped symbol address on kernel. This allows us to probe on syscall symbols which are aliases of SyS_ functions with using debuginfo.
Without this fix: ---- # ./perf probe -a sys_write Failed to find debug information for address 3b0100 Probe point 'sys_write' not found. Error: Failed to add events. ---- The address 0x3b0100 is a mapped address, and not usable in debuginfo.
With this fix: ---- # ./perf probe -a sys_write Added new event: probe:sys_write (on sys_write)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_write -aR sleep 1 ----
