[PATCH V2 8/9] perf tools: Adjust kallsyms for relocated kernel

From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Wed Jan 29 2014 - 09:13:53 EST


If the kernel is relocated at boot time, kallsyms
will not match data recorded previously. That
does not matter for modules because they are
corrected anyway. It also does not matter if
vmlinux is being used for symbols. But if perf
tools has only kallsyms then the symbols will not
match. Fix by applying the delta gained by
comparing the old and current addresses of the
relocation reference symbol.
