[PATCH V2 2/3] perf symbols: improve abi compliance in arm mapping symbols handling

From: Victor Kamensky <hidden>
Date: 2015-01-22 04:53:56
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: performance events subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Peter Zijlstra, Ingo Molnar, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Namhyung Kim, Linus Torvalds

Both Arm and Aarch64 ELF ABI allow mapping symbols be in from
either "$d" or "$d.<any>". But current code that handles mapping
symbols only deals with the first, dollar character and a single
letter, case.

The patch adds handling of the second case with period
followed by any characters.
