Subject: [PATCH 1/1] perf symbols: Fix arm64 gap between kernel start and
module end
During execution of command 'perf report' in my arm64 virtual machine,
this error message is showed:
failed to process sample
__symbol__inc_addr_samples(860): ENOMEM! sym->name=__this_module,
start=0x1477100, addr=0x147dbd8, end=0x80002000, func: 0
The error is caused with path:
cmd_report
__cmd_report
perf_session__process_events
__perf_session__process_events
ordered_events__flush
__ordered_events__flush
oe->deliver (ordered_events__deliver_event)
perf_session__deliver_event
machines__deliver_event
perf_evlist__deliver_sample
tool->sample (process_sample_event)
hist_entry_iter__add
iter->add_entry_cb(hist_iter__report_callback)
hist_entry__inc_addr_samples
symbol__inc_addr_samples
__symbol__inc_addr_samples
h = annotated_source__histogram(src, evidx) (NULL)
annotated_source__histogram failed is caused with path:
...
hist_entry__inc_addr_samples
symbol__inc_addr_samples
symbol__hists
annotated_source__alloc_histograms
src->histograms = calloc(nr_hists, sizeof_sym_hist) (failed)
Calloc failed as the symbol__size(sym) is too huge. As show in error
message: start=0x1477100, end=0x80002000, size of symbol is about 2G.
This is the same problem as 'perf annotate: Fix s390 gap between kernel
end and module start (b9c0a64901d5bd)'. Perf gets symbol information from
/proc/kallsyms in __dso__load_kallsyms. A part of symbol in /proc/kallsyms
from my virtual machine is as follows:
#cat /proc/kallsyms | sort
...
ffff000001475080 d rpfilter_mt_reg [ip6t_rpfilter]
ffff000001475100 d $d [ip6t_rpfilter]
ffff000001475100 d __this_module [ip6t_rpfilter]
ffff000080080000 t _head
ffff000080080000 T _text
ffff000080080040 t pe_header
...
Take line 'ffff000001475100 d __this_module [ip6t_rpfilter]' as example.
The start and end of symbol are both set to ffff000001475100 in
dso__load_all_kallsyms. Then symbols__fixup_end will set the end of symbol
to next big address to ffff000001475100 in /proc/kallsyms, ffff000080080000
in this example. Then sizeof of symbol will be about 2G and cause the
problem.
The start of module in my machine is
ffff000000a62000 t $x [dm_mod]
The start of kernel in my machine is
ffff000080080000 t _head
There is a big gap between end of module and begin of kernel if a samll
amount of memory is used by module. And the last symbol in module will
have a large address range as caotaining the big gap.
Give that the module and kernel text segment sequence may change in
the future, fix this by limiting range of last symbol in module and kernel
to 4K in arch arm64.
