Currently, $(BUILDID_ROOT)/.debug/.buildid has a directory structure organized by the buildid value, like this: .build-id - 3a | e5ba6d4e532ad529e43ccf1ce1ddf8a64a4fdd - 84 dbd75729adba57cc42f5544b25de571c0c8731 perf searchs for buildid binaries by the buildid value. And symfs is a normal file tree and perf searchs for binaryies by the file name. lib - libc.so - ld.so Tt's inappropriate to add symfs to .build-id dir becuase they have different dirctory structure and perf searchs for them by differnt ways. So in this patch I add .buildid to symfs and got dirctory tree like this: symfs - $(DSO_PREFIX) - .build-id - 3a - 84 - libc.so - ld.so Thanks
