When tracing shared library functions with funclatency, no function names were displayed - shared-libraries

Question

When using the bcc tool funclatency, there are unknown function names.
It would be helpful if I could track the entry and return values of a number of functions contained in the library ibverbs (Infiniband).
I use funclatency to print a histogram of the ibverbs functions called by perftest.
https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/tree/master/tools
To send packages between two nodes, I use the perftest.
https://github.com/linux-rdma/perftest
To compile the perftest application, I used the following compiler flags:
CFLAGS = -g -Wall -D_GNU_SOURCE -O3 -ggdb3 -O2 -fno-omit-frame-pointer
System:
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
Release: 11
Codename: bullseye
I use funclatency like this:
sudo funclatency-bpfcc ibverbs:ibv_get*
funclatency output:
Tracing 13 functions for "ibverbs:ibv_get*"... Hit Ctrl-C to end.
Function = b'[unknown]' [784402]

Here is the source code for the translation of a memory address into a function name:
https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/blob/master/src/python/bcc/init.py
def sym(addr, pid, show_module=False, show_offset=False, demangle=True):
"""sym(addr, pid, show_module=False, show_offset=False)
Translate a memory address into a function name for a pid, which is
returned. When show_module is True, the module name is also included.
When show_offset is True, the instruction offset as a hexadecimal
number is also included in the string.
A pid of less than zero will access the kernel symbol cache.
Example output when both show_module and show_offset are True:
"start_thread+0x202 [libpthread-2.24.so]"
Example output when both show_module and show_offset are False:
"start_thread"
"""
#addr is of type stacktrace_build_id
#so invoke the bsym address resolver
typeofaddr = str(type(addr))
if typeofaddr.find('bpf_stack_build_id') != -1:
sym = bcc_symbol()
b = bcc_stacktrace_build_id()
b.status = addr.status
b.build_id = addr.build_id
b.u.offset = addr.offset
res = lib.bcc_buildsymcache_resolve(BPF._bsymcache,
ct.byref(b),
ct.byref(sym))
if res < 0:
if sym.module and sym.offset:
name,offset,module = (None, sym.offset,
ct.cast(sym.module, ct.c_char_p).value)
else:
name, offset, module = (None, addr, None)
else:
name, offset, module = (sym.name, sym.offset,
ct.cast(sym.module, ct.c_char_p).value)
else:
name, offset, module = BPF._sym_cache(pid).resolve(addr, demangle)
offset = b"+0x%x" % offset if show_offset and name is not None else b""
name = name or b"[unknown]"
name = name + offset
module = b" [%s]" % os.path.basename(module) \
if show_module and module is not None else b""
return name + module
How can I read the function name correctly? It should not just return b'[unknown]'!
