From 93f678b9ae8feb7f7cec29c2dcbb5756ad22d9a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Fri, 24 May 2019 15:39:00 -0300 Subject: perf test vmlinux-kallsyms: Ignore aliases to _etext when searching on kallsyms No need to search for aliases for the symbol that marks the end of the kernel text segment, the following patch will make such symbols not to be found when searching in the kallsyms maps causing this test to fail. So as a prep patch to avoid breaking bisection, ignore such symbols.
