perf probe: Prevent segfault when reading probe point with absolute address
'perf probe -l' panic if there is a manually inserted probing point with
absolute address. For example:
# echo 'p:probe/abs_ffffffff811e6615 0xffffffff811e6615' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
# perf probe -l
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This patch fix this problem by considering the situation that
"tp->symbol == NULL" in find_perf_probe_point_from_dwarf() and
find_perf_probe_point_from_map().
After this patch:
# perf probe -l
probe:abs_ffffffff811e6615 (on SyS_write+5@fs/read_write.c)
And when debug info is missing:
# rm -rf ~/.debug
# mv /lib/modules/4.2.0-rc1+/build/vmlinux /lib/modules/4.2.0-rc1+/build/vmlinux.bak
# perf probe -l
probe:abs_ffffffff811e6615 (on sys_write+5)
