Configurable via symbol_conf.sort_by_name, so that the cost of an extra rb_node on all 'struct symbol' instances is not paid by tools that only want to decode addresses. How to use it: symbol_conf.sort_by_name = true; symbol_init(&symbol_conf); struct map *map = map_groups__find_by_name(kmaps, MAP__VARIABLE, "[kernel.kallsyms]"); if (map == NULL) { pr_err("couldn't find map!\n"); kernel_maps__fprintf(stdout); } else { struct symbol *sym = map__find_symbol_by_name(map, sym_filter, NULL); if (sym == NULL) pr_err("couldn't find symbol %s!\n", sym_filter); else pr_info("symbol %s: %#Lx-%#Lx \n", sym_filter, sym->start, sym->end); } Looking over the vmlinux/kallsyms is common enough that I'll add a variable to the upcoming struct perf_session to avoid the need to use map_groups__find_by_name to get the main vmlinux/kallsyms map. The above example looks on the 'variable' symtab, but it is just like that for the functions one. Also the sort operation is done when we first use map__find_symbol_by_name, in a lazy way.
