perf archive: Correct cutting of symbolic link
If a '$PERF_BUILDID_DIR'(typically $HOME/.debug) is a symbolic link
directory, cutting of the path will fail.
Here is an example where a buildid directory is a symbolic link.
/ # ls -al /root
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Mar 26 2012 /root -> opt/home/root
/ # cd ~
/opt/home/root # perf record -a -g sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.322 MB perf.data (~14057 samples) ]
/opt/home/root # perf archive
tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
Now please run:
$ tar xvf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ~/.debug
wherever you need to run 'perf report' on.
/opt/home/root # mkdir temp
/opt/home/root # tar xf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ./temp
/opt/home/root # find ./temp -name "*kernel*"
./temp/opt/home/root/.debug/[kernel.kallsyms]
-> If successfully cut off the path, [kernel.kallsyms] is located
in top of the archived file.
This patch enables to cut correctly even if the buildid directory
is a symbolic link.
