Subject: [PATCH v1 3/8] perf tools: Check system path when check debuginfo
Date: Sun, 27 Sep 2026 22:50:50 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928055055.95144-4-namhyung@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260928055055.95144-1-namhyung@kernel.org>

The debuginfo__new() has a fallback to try the given path, but it seems
that it can check SYSTEM_PATH_DSO type in the dso__find_dbginfo_type()
instead.

One corner case would be when dso__new() fails in debuginfo__new() but
it should be rare and memory is exhausted.  I think it's fine to fail
for that case.
