In some situations the libdw unwinder stopped working properly. I.e. with libunwind we see: ~~~~~ heaptrack_gui 2228 135073.400112: 641314 cycles: e8ed _dl_fixup (/usr/lib/ld-2.25.so) 15f06 _dl_runtime_resolve_sse_vex (/usr/lib/ld-2.25.so) ed94c KDynamicJobTracker::KDynamicJobTracker (/home/milian/projects/compiled/kf5/lib64/libKF5KIOWidgets.so.5.35.0) 608f3 _GLOBAL__sub_I_kdynamicjobtracker.cpp (/home/milian/projects/compiled/kf5/lib64/libKF5KIOWidgets.so.5.35.0) f199 call_init.part.0 (/usr/lib/ld-2.25.so) f2a5 _dl_init (/usr/lib/ld-2.25.so) db9 _dl_start_user (/usr/lib/ld-2.25.so) ~~~~~ But with libdw and without this patch this sample is not properly unwound: ~~~~~ heaptrack_gui 2228 135073.400112: 641314 cycles: e8ed _dl_fixup (/usr/lib/ld-2.25.so) 15f06 _dl_runtime_resolve_sse_vex (/usr/lib/ld-2.25.so) ed94c KDynamicJobTracker::KDynamicJobTracker (/home/milian/projects/compiled/kf5/lib64/libKF5KIOWidgets.so.5.35.0) ~~~~~ Debug output showed me that libdw found a module for the last frame address, but it thinks it belongs to /usr/lib/ld-2.25.so. This patch double-checks what libdw sees and what perf knows. If the mappings mismatch, we now report the elf known to perf. This fixes the situation above, and the libdw unwinder produces the same stack as libunwind.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
