When perf/data is recorded with the dwarf call-graph option, the
callchain shown by 'perf script' still shows the binary offsets of the
userspace symbols instead of their virtual addresses. Since the symbol
offset calculation is based on using virtual address as the ip, we see
incorrect offsets as well.
The use of virtual addresses affects the ability to find out the
line number in the corresponding source file to which an address
maps to as described in commit 6754075915 ("perf unwind: Use
addr_location::addr instead of ip for entries").
This has also been addressed by temporarily converting the virtual
address to the correponding binary offset so that it can be mapped
to the source line number correctly.
This is a follow-up for commit 1961018469 ("perf script: Show
virtual addresses instead of offsets").
This can be verified on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as
shown below:
