Date: Tue, 23 Nov 2010 16:35:39 +1100 From: "Ian Munsie" <imunsie@....ibm.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Ian Munsie <imunsie@....ibm.com>, Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@...llo.nl>, Paul Mackerras <paulus@...ba.org>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@...stprotocols.net>, Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@...il.com>, Arun Sharma <aruns@...gle.com> Subject: [PATCH 1/6] perf: Display unknown rather than IP for unidentified DSO From: Ian Munsie <imunsie@....ibm.com> In the event that a DSO has not been identified, just print out <unknown> instead of the instruction pointer as we previously were doing, which is pretty meaningless for a shared object (at least to the users perspective). The IP we print out is fairly meaningless in general anyway - it's just one (the first) of the many addresses that were lumped together as unidentified, and could span many shared objects and symbols. In reality if we see this <unknown> output the debugging output (report -D) is going to be more useful anyway as we can see all the different address that it represents. If we are printing the symbols we are still going to see this IP in that column anyway since they shouldn't resolve either.
