    perf symbols: Start adding support for .plt.got for x86 · 51a188ad
    Adrian Hunter authored
    For x86, .plt.got is used, for example, when the address is taken of a
    dynamically linked function. Start adding support by synthesizing a
    symbol for each entry. A subsequent patch will attempt to get a better
    name for the symbol.
    
    Example:
    
      Before:
    
        $ cat tstpltlib.c
        void fn1(void) {}
        void fn2(void) {}
        void fn3(void) {}
        void fn4(void) {}
        $ cat tstpltgot.c
        void fn1(void);
        void fn2(void);
        void fn3(void);
        void fn4(void);
    
        void callfn(void (*fn)(void))
        {
                fn();
        }
    
        int main()
        {
                fn4();
                fn1();
                callfn(fn3);
                fn2();
                fn3();
                return 0;
        }
