[PATCH v2 4/5] perf-probe: Find versioned symbols from map

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Thu Dec 07 2017 - 02:21:54 EST


Find versioned symbols correctly from map.
Commit d80406453ad4 ("perf symbols: Allow user probes on
versioned symbols") allows user to find default versioned
symbols (with "@@") in map. However, it did not enable
normal versioned symbol (with "@") for perf-probe.
E.g.

=====
# ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state
Failed to find symbol malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so
Error: Failed to add events.
=====

This solves above issue by improving perf-probe symbol
search function, as below.

=====
# ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state
Added new event:
probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_get_state -aR sleep 1

# ./perf probe -l
probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state@xxxxxxxxxxx in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
=====
