There is a bug where when using 'perf annotate timerqueue_add' the
target for its only routine called with the 'callq' instruction,
'rb_insert_color', doesn't get resolved from its address when parsing
that 'callq' instruction.
That symbol resolution works when using 'perf report --tui' and then
doing annotation for 'timerqueue_add' from there, the vmlinux
dso->symbols rb_tree somehow gets in a state that we can't find that
address, that is a bug that has to be further investigated.
But since the objdump output has the function name, i.e. the raw objdump
disassembled line looks like:
So, before:
# perf annotate timerqueue_add
│ mov %rbx,%rdi
│ mov %rbx,(%rdx)
│ → callq *ffffffff8184dc80
│ mov 0x8(%rbp),%rdx
│ test %rdx,%rdx
│ ↓ je 67
# perf report
│ mov %rbx,%rdi
│ mov %rbx,(%rdx)
│ → callq rb_insert_color
│ mov 0x8(%rbp),%rdx
│ test %rdx,%rdx
│ ↓ je 67
And after both look the same:
# perf annotate timerqueue_add
│ mov %rbx,%rdi
│ mov %rbx,(%rdx)
│ → callq rb_insert_color
│ mov 0x8(%rbp),%rdx
│ test %rdx,%rdx
│ ↓ je 67
From 'perf report' one can annotate and navigate to that 'rb_insert_color'
function, but not directly from 'perf annotate timerqueue_add', that
remains to be investigated and fixed.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
