Since commit edeb0c90df35 ("perf tools: Stop fallbacking to kallsyms for vdso symbols lookup"), the kernel address cannot be properly parsed to kernel symbol with command 'perf script -k vmlinux'. The reason is CoreSight samples is always to set CPU mode as PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER, thus it fails to find corresponding map/dso in below flows:
process_sample_event() `-> machine__resolve() `-> thread__find_map(thread, sample->cpumode, sample->ip, al);
In this flow it needs to pass argument 'sample->cpumode' to tell what's the CPU mode, before it always passed PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER but without any failure until the commit edeb0c90df35 ("perf tools: Stop fallbacking to kallsyms for vdso symbols lookup") has been merged. The reason is even with the wrong CPU mode the function thread__find_map() firstly fails to find map but it will rollback to find kernel map for vdso symbols lookup. In the latest code it has removed the fallback code, thus if CPU mode is PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER then it cannot find map anymore with kernel address.
This patch is to correct samples CPU mode setting, it creates a new helper function cs_etm__cpu_mode() to tell what's the CPU mode based on the address with the info from machine structure; this patch has a bit extension to check not only kernel and user mode, but also check for host/guest and hypervisor mode. Finally this patch uses the function in instruction and branch samples and also apply in cs_etm__mem_access() for a minor polishing.
