The vdso dumped from process memory (in buildid-cache) lacks debugging
info. To annotate vdso symbols with source lines we need specify a
debugging version.

If we already found a debugging version when loading symbols for that dso,
then use the same file for disasm instead of looking up in buildid-cache.

In the past, there have been cases where the debugging version has not
worked for reading object code. I don't remember the details, but the
symbols and debugging information was OK while the object code was not.
In general, using anything other than the file that was actually executed
for reading object code seems like a bad idea.

We already have logic to find debug files, and to deal with a symbol source
(syms_ss) and runtime symbol source (runtime_ss).
Can't we make that work transparently for vdso so that the user does
not have to.

Is this a platform specific issue? AFAIK, the binary code in debugging and
non-debugging version should be identical.

For Ubuntu, we can find the debug files of vdso in
/lib/modules/<version>/vdso/vdso{32,64}.so. These two are debug version.
For local build, seems vdso{32,64}.so.dbg are not installed in /lib/modules/ nor
other locations.

"should be" != "guaranteed to be". Simpler to avoid the issue and
stick with the file that was actually executed. We already support
having separate symbol sources, so there should not really be a
problem.

ok, so for vdso I think we can flow the kernel part in dso__disassemble_filename.
I'll add vdso processing here.

hm, we can try /lib/modules/<version>/build/arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso*.so.dbg.
Other arches are similar.
So, we will try these pathes internally. And keep '--vdso' if someone really
want a special path. (just like vmlinux)
