perf test: Fix dwarf unwind using libunwind.
Perf tool fails to unwind user stack if the event raises in a shared object. This patch improves tests/dwarf-unwind.c to demonstrate the problem by utilizing commonly used glibc function "bsearch". If perf is not statically linked, the testcase will try to unwind a mixed call trace. By debugging libunwind I found that there is a bug in unwind-libunwind: it always passes 0 as segbase to libunwind, cause libunwind unable to locate debug_frame entry fir first level ip address (I add some more debugging output into libunwind to make things clear): >_Uarm_dwarf_find_debug_frame: start_ip = 10be98, end_ip = 10c2a4 >_Uarm_dwarf_find_debug_frame: found debug_frame table `/lib/libc-2.18.so': segbase=0x0, len=7, gp=0x0, table_data=0x449388 >_Uarm_dwarf_search_unwind_table: call lookup:ip = b6cd3bcc, segbase = 0, rel_ip = b6cd3bcc >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = bcf18 (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 6d314 (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 33d0c (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) ... >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 15d0c (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) >lookup: e->start_ip_offset = 15c40 (rel_ip = b6cd3bcc) >_Uarm_dwarf_search_unwind_table: IP b6cd3bcc inside range b6c12000-b6d4c000, but no explicit unwind info found >put_rs_cache: unmasking signals/interrupts and releasing lock >_Uarm_dwarf_step: returning -10 >_Uarm_step: dwarf_step()=-10 This patch passes map->start as segbase to dwarf_find_debug_frame(), so di will be initialized correctly. In addition, dso and executable are different when setting segbase. This patch first check whether the elf is executable, and pass segbase only for shared object.
