Hi, Gustavo.

I would like to ask if using the same location as the real perf binary
itself would be fine for your needs.

That is, a symlink at /usr/lib/linux-tools/`uname -r`/libperf_jvmti.so
pointing at /usr/lib/linux-tools-SRCVERSION-ABINUMBER/libperf_jvmti.so.

Thanks.
Cascardo.

Bug description:
  ---Problem Description---
  File libperf-jvmti.so is missing in linux-tools-common deb making it 
impossible to use perf for the JVM JITed methods
   
  ---uname output---
  inux-image-4.13.0-36-generic
   
  Machine Type = not relevant 
   
  ---Debugger---
  A debugger is not configured
   
  ---Steps to Reproduce---
   File libperf-jvmti.so is missing in linux-tools-common deb provided for 
Ubuntu 17.10 making it impossible to use perf for the JVM JITed methods. I also 
checked if the file is available on launchpad 
(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux) for Bionic Beaver proposed (main) 
at it's also absent there:

  gromero@ltc-wspoon3:~/download$ dpkg -c 
linux-tools-common_4.15.0-13.14_all.deb | fgrep jvm
  gromero@ltc-wspoon3:~/download$ dpkg -c 
linux-tools-4.15.0-13-generic_4.15.0-13.14_ppc64el.deb | fgrep jvm

  I do see the file in tools/perf/jvmti dir in the source .tar.gz, but
  apparently it's no being packaged in any .deb file?

  Thanks.
