'perf probe' uses ref_reloc_sym to adjust symbol offset address from debuginfo address or ref_reloc_sym based address, but that is misusing reloc_sym->addr and reloc_sym->unrelocated_addr. If map is not relocated (map->reloc == 0), we can use reloc_sym->addr as unrelocated address instead of reloc_sym->unrelocated_addr. This usually does not happen. If we have a non-stripped ELF binary, we will use it for map and debuginfo, if not, we use only kallsyms without debuginfo. Thus, the map is always relocated (ELF and DWARF binary) or not relocated (kallsyms). However, if we allow the combination of debuginfo and kallsyms based map (like using debuginfod), we have to check the map->reloc and choose the collect address of reloc_sym.

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.
