perf: parse the .debug_frame section in case .eh_frame is not present
On ARM the debug info is not present in the .eh_frame sections but in .debug_frame instead, in dwarf format. Use libunwind to load and parse the debug info. Dependencies: . if present, libunwind >= 1.1 is needed to prevent a segfault when parsing the dwarf info, . libunwind needs to be configured with --enable-debug-frame. Note: --enable-debug-frame is automatically selected on ARM. Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jean Pihet <jean.pihet@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
