3.16.82-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 0ad45b33c58dca60dec7e1fb44766753bc4a7a38 upstream. Skip probes if the entry address of the target function is 0. This can happen when we're handling C++ debuginfo files. E.g. without this fix, below case still fail. ---- $ ./perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 -vD is_open probe-definition(0): is_open symbol:is_open file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null) 0 arguments symbol:catch file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null) symbol:throw file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null) symbol:rethrow file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null) Open Debuginfo file: /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22.debug Try to find probe point from debuginfo.
