    perf jvmti: Fix demangling Java symbols · 0bdf3181
    Nick Gasson authored
    For a Java method signature like:
    
        Ljava/lang/AbstractStringBuilder;appendChars(Ljava/lang/String;II)V
    
    The demangler produces:
    
        void class java.lang.AbstractStringBuilder.appendChars(class java.lang., shorttring., int, int)
    
    The arguments should be (java.lang.String, int, int) but the demangler
    interprets the "S" in String as the type code for "short". Correct this
    and two other minor things:
    
    - There is no "bool" type in Java, should be "boolean".
    
    - The demangler prepends "class" to every Java class name. This is not
      standard Java syntax and it wastes a lot of horizontal space if the
      signature is long. Remove this as there isn't any ambiguity between
      class names and primitives.
    
    Committer notes:
    
    This was split from a larger patch that also added a java demangler
    'perf test' entry, that, before this patch shows the error being fixed
    by it:
    
      $ perf test java

      $ perf test -v java
      Couldn't bump rlimit(MEMLOCK), failures may take place when creating BPF maps, etc

    After applying this patch:
    
      $ perf test  java
