commit 80526491c2 upstream.
Fix to check kprobe blacklist address correctly with relocated address
by adjusting debuginfo address.
Since the address in the debuginfo is same as objdump, it is different
from relocated kernel address with KASLR. Thus, 'perf probe' always
misses to catch the blacklisted addresses.
Without this patch, 'perf probe' can not detect the blacklist addresses
on a KASLR enabled kernel.
# perf probe kprobe_dispatcher
Failed to write event: Invalid argument
Error: Failed to add events.
#
With this patch, it correctly shows the error message.
# perf probe kprobe_dispatcher
kprobe_dispatcher is blacklisted function, skip it.
Probe point 'kprobe_dispatcher' not found.
Error: Failed to add events.
