I found the problem when testing my '--map-adjustment' argument. I tried to
construct a test case for normal case, but it seems triggers futher bugs.

Following is the reproducing steps. The first two

Step 1: create a C file like this (libtest-load.c):

--------test-load.c-----------
#define DATA_SZ 65535
int data[DATA_SZ] = {1,1,2,3,5,8,13,};

int fib(int x)
{
        if (x >= DATA_SZ)
                return -1;
        if ((x == 0) || (x == 1))
                return 1;
        data[x] = fib(x - 1) + fib(x - 2);
        return data[x];
}
----------------------

Step 2: create a shared object with folowing ld-script (test-load.lds) using:

$ gcc -shared -fPIC ./test-load.c -Wl,-T./test-load.lds -O0 -o libtest-load.so

--------------test-load.lds---------------

        data PT_LOAD FLAGS(7);
        dynamic PT_DYNAMIC FLAGS(7);
        note PT_NOTE FLAGS(4);
}
-----------------------------

In my environment, I get a shared object with:

$ readelf -l ./libtest-load.so

Elf file type is DYN (Shared object file)
Entry point 0x390
There are 4 program headers, starting at offset 64

   01     .ctors .dtors .jcr .got .got.plt .data .data.rel .bss
   02     .dynamic
   03

The goal of the first 2 steps is to create a shared object which will be mmap-ed with
pgoff != 0 (offset of a PT_LOAD segment != 0). I'm not sure which part of the ld scripts
leads to this, so I paste all of them.

Step 3: Use that shared object: compile following C file using:

$ gcc ./test.c -O0 -ltest-load -L.

--------- test.c ---------
#include <stdio.h>
extern int fib(int x);
int main()
{
	printf("%d\n", fib(30));
	return 0;
}
-----------------

Step 4: perf record:

$ perf record -g --call-graph=dwarf   ./a.out

Step 5: perf report:

$ perf report --stdio --no-children

Perf failed to extract symbol name and also failed to unwind.


With my patch, perf unwind works:

However, still unable to find symbol names.
