[HACKERS] Oprofile with postgresql

Hi all:

      Recently i do a test of postgresql. To get more information of the functions in PostgreSQL, i use
 
opgprof and opannotate, which are two tools in Oprofile. But i can't work with the tools correctly.

PostgreSQL is compiled with -g option and the errors are like this:

 opgprof error: parse_filename() invalid filename: /var/lib/oprofile/samples/current/{root}/var/lib/oprofile/samples/current/{root}/home/ubuntu/tpcc-uva/bin/tm/{dep}/{anon:[vdso]}/7208.0x7fff7a972000.0x7fff7a974000/CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.90000.0.all.all.all/{dep}/{root}/var/lib/oprofile/samples/current/{root}/home/ubuntu/tpcc-uva/bin/tm/{dep}/{anon:[vdso]}/7208.0x7fff7a972000.0x7fff7a974000/CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.90000.0.all.all.all/{cg}/{root}/usr/bin/oprofiled/CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.90000.0.all.all.all

and opannotate
