perf tools: Allow build-id with trailing zeros
Currently perf saves a build-id with size but old versions assumes the size of 20. In case the build-id is less than 20 (like for MD5), it'd fill the rest with 0s. I saw a problem when old version of perf record saved a binary in the build-id cache and new version of perf reads the data. The symbols should be read from the build-id cache (as the path no longer has the same binary) but it failed due to mismatch in the build-id. symsrc__init: build id mismatch for /home/namhyung/.debug/.build-id/53/e4c2f42a4c61a2d632d92a72afa08f00000000/elf. The build-id event in the data has 20 byte build-ids, but it saw a different size (16) when it reads the build-id of the elf file in the build-id cache. $ readelf -n ~/.debug/.build-id/53/e4c2f42a4c61a2d632d92a72afa08f00000000/elf Displaying notes found in: .note.gnu.build-id Owner Data size Description GNU 0x00000010 NT_GNU_BUILD_ID (unique build ID bitstring) Build ID: 53e4c2f42a4c61a2d632d92a72afa08f Let's fix this by allowing trailing zeros if the size is different.
