perf probe: Fix !dwarf build
Fix the !drawf build.
This uses the existing NO_DWARF_SUPPORT mechanism we use for that,
but it's really fragile and needs a cleanup. (in a separate patch)
1) Such uses:
#ifndef NO_DWARF_SUPPORT
are double inverted logic a'la 'not not'. Instead the flag should
be called DWARF_SUPPORT.
2) Furthermore, assymetric #ifdef polluted code flow like:
if (need_dwarf)
#ifdef NO_DWARF_SUPPORT
die("Debuginfo-analysis is not supported");
#else /* !NO_DWARF_SUPPORT */
pr_debug("Some probes require debuginfo.\n");
fd = open_vmlinux();
is very fragile and not acceptable. Instead of that helper functions
should be created and the dwarf/no-dwarf logic should be separated more
cleanly.
3) Local variable #ifdefs like this:
#ifndef NO_DWARF_SUPPORT
int fd;
#endif
Are fragile as well and should be eliminated. Helper functions achieve
that too.
