Steve MacLean ee212d6ea2 perf map: Fix overlapped map handling
Whenever an mmap/mmap2 event occurs, the map tree must be updated to add a new
entry. If a new map overlaps a previous map, the overlapped section of the
previous map is effectively unmapped, but the non-overlapping sections are
still valid.

maps__fixup_overlappings() is responsible for creating any new map entries from
the previously overlapped map. It optionally creates a before and an after map.

When creating the after map the existing code failed to adjust the map.pgoff.
This meant the new after map would incorrectly calculate the file offset
for the ip. This results in incorrect symbol name resolution for any ip in the
after region.

Make maps__fixup_overlappings() correctly populate map.pgoff.

Add an assert that new mapping matches old mapping at the beginning of
the after map.

Committer-testing:

Validated correct parsing of libcoreclr.so symbols from .NET Core 3.0 preview9
(which didn't strip symbols).

Preparation:

  ~/dotnet3.0-preview9/dotnet new webapi -o perfSymbol
  cd perfSymbol
  ~/dotnet3.0-preview9/dotnet publish
  perf record ~/dotnet3.0-preview9/dotnet \
      bin/Debug/netcoreapp3.0/publish/perfSymbol.dll
  ^C

Before:

  perf script --show-mmap-events 2>&1 | grep -e MMAP -e unknown |\
     grep libcoreclr.so | head -n 4
        dotnet  1907 373352.698780: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 1907/1907: \

             (.../3.0.0-preview9-19423-09/libcoreclr.so)

After:

  perf script --show-mmap-events 2>&1 | grep -e MMAP -e unknown |\
     grep libcoreclr.so | head -n 4
        dotnet  1907 373352.698780: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 1907/1907: \

            rwxp .../3.0.0-preview9-19423-09/libcoreclr.so

All the [unknown] symbols were resolved.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
