From 7ee235efe5f86f239ce73915fd2e15f4d14259c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lin Ming Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2011 23:23:57 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] perf symbols: Avoid resolving [kernel.kallsyms] to real path for buildid cache kallsyms has a virtual file name [kernel.kallsyms]. Currently, it can't be added to buildid cache successfully because the code (build_id_cache__add_s) tries to resolve [kernel.kallsyms] to a real absolute pathname and that fails. Fixes it by not resolving it and just use the name [kernel.kallsyms]. So dir ~/.debug/[kernel.kallsyms] is created.
