Hi Here are some patches that improve perf tools handling of relocation.
This has become an issue as mentioned in this thread: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=139030004314756 Changes in V2: Fix some typos in commit messages perf tools: Set up ref_reloc_sym in machine__create_kernel_maps() Fix "/proc/kallsyms" -> filename Use an array of symbol names perf buildid-cache: Check relocation when checking for existing kcore New patch Adrian Hunter (9): perf tools: Fix symbol annotation for relocated kernel perf tools: Add kallsyms__get_function_start() perf tools: Add machine__get_kallsyms_filename() perf tools: Set up ref_reloc_sym in machine__create_kernel_maps() perf record: Get ref_reloc_sym from kernel map perf tools: Prevent the use of kcore if the kernel has moved perf tools: Test does not need to set up ref_reloc_sym perf tools: Adjust kallsyms for relocated kernel perf buildid-cache: Check relocation when checking for existing kcore tools/perf/builtin-buildid-cache.c | 33 ++++++++++++++++--- tools/perf/builtin-record.c | 10 ++---- tools/perf/tests/vmlinux-kallsyms.c | 10 ------ tools/perf/util/event.c | 36 ++++++++++---------- tools/perf/util/event.h | 6 ++-- tools/perf/util/machine.c | 42 +++++++++++++++++++----- tools/perf/util/machine.h | 2 ++ tools/perf/util/map.c | 5 +-- tools/perf/util/map.h | 1 + tools/perf/util/symbol-elf.c | 2 ++ tools/perf/util/symbol.c | 65 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- 11 files changed, 153 insertions(+), 59 deletions(-) Regards Adrian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
