I can't find this upstream - did it change name, or was there a reason it didn't make it?
No, the python script has not been merged into mainline kernel. Searched mailing list, at last year there have some discussion and had concern for this patch to work with CPU wide trace mode:
https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/coresight/2019-May/002592.html
This kind of thing is becoming more interesting as we are looking to give people better ways of processing large volumes of trace without using "perf inject" as an intermediate step.
Agree, 'perf script' is alternative way rather than 'perf inject' for post analysis.
Ok thanks. I made a few changes to the script (see below) - perf gives us the dso name in the event, so we don't have to look up by address on every event, but we still need the mmap records to give us the base address for disassembly. There are still some issues with this - it would be much better if we could get perf to pass in the mmap events directly, instead of having to run a perf command from within the script (which gets it wrong if the "-i" option was used, or if the perf binary wasn't on the path).
