perf symbols: Use correct filename for compressed modules in build-id cache
The decompress_kmodule() decompresses kernel modules in order to load symbols from it. In the DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BUILD_ID_CACHE case, it needs the full file path to extract the file extension to determine the decompression method. But overwriting 'name' will fail the decompression since it might point to a non-existing old file. Instead, use dso->long_name for having the correct extension and use the real filename to decompress. In the DSO_BINARY_TYPE__SYSTEM_PATH_KMODULE_COMP case, both names should be the same. This allows resolving symbols in the old modules. Before: $ perf report -i perf.data.old | grep scsi_mod 0.00% cc1 [scsi_mod] [k] 0x0000000000004aa6 0.00% as [scsi_mod] [k] 0x00000000000099e1 0.00% cc1 [scsi_mod] [k] 0x0000000000009830 0.00% cc1 [scsi_mod] [k] 0x0000000000001b8f After: 0.00% cc1 [scsi_mod] [k] scsi_handle_queue_ramp_up 0.00% as [scsi_mod] [k] scsi_sg_alloc 0.00% cc1 [scsi_mod] [k] scsi_setup_cmnd 0.00% cc1 [scsi_mod] [k] scsi_get_command Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: kernel-team@lge.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170531120105.21731-3-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
