perf symbols: Ignore stripped vmlinux and fallback to kallsyms
If a vmlinux is stripped, perf will use it and ignore kallsyms. We end up with useless profiles where everything maps to a few runtime symbols: 63.39% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] hcall_real_table 4.90% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] hcall_real_table 4.44% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __sched_text_start 3.72% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __run_at_kexec Detect this case and fallback to using kallsyms. This fixes the issue: 62.81% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] snooze_loop 4.44% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __schedule 0.91% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _switch 0.73% beam.smp [kernel.kallsyms] [k] put_prev_entity Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140909085929.4a5a81f0@kryten Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
