Subject: [PATCH 0/16] perf: various symbol resolution fixes, including .opd section use.
Date: Thu, 9 Aug 2012 15:18:25 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1344550721-21024-1-git-send-email-cody@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
1-4,6,7 are small cleanups.
5 fixes a potential segfault.
8 fixes a use after free for dso->long_name
9 avoids a segfault in elfutils when a truncated elf is loaded.
10 properly tracks that a dso had symbols loaded from a vmlinux image
11-16 fix handling of the '.opd' section in the presence of debuginfo. They
should also fix plt symbol synthesis (haven't seen the plt issues in
practice).
