The remote unwind can supported scenario where we collect on a x86_64 machine and want to do analysis on a ARM64 or x86-32 machine. Though this is not tested, after Arnaldo questioned the above issue, I tested and found a bug.
In util/unwind-libunwind-local.c, PERF_REG_SP/IP is used, but those macros are assigned to the host platform, we should redefine them in the wrapper file, for example in "util/libunwind/x86_32.c".
After fixing this problem, i686 perf.data can be parsed on aarch64 machine.
To Arnaldo, I noticed that this patch "perf tools: Find vdso supporting cross-platform analysis" is not on "origin/perf/unwind" branch, this patch was applied, please check if it was missed, the above test needs this patch.
Thank you.
