Sorry for very long delay.
This patch (probably this bit here) breaks annotation of vdso.
To allow for bisection, you need to arrange changes so that each
patch leaves things in a working state.
However, I disagree with adding --vdso option since with just
patch 8 alone, it would be possible to do:
perf buildid-cache --remove /work/linux/arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso64.so.dbg
perf buildid-cache --add /work/linux/arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso64.so.dbg
and same of vdso32.
That would leave the buildid-cache containing only the debug versions,
which would mean you will only get the debug versions, and it would only
need to be done once per kernel instead of having to add --vdso to
every perf command.
