I was on tip/master, so unlikely to be that as I was likely already having it. perf-report was affected too, for some reason my CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y vmlinux wasn't showing symbols (and I double checked that KASLR crap was disabled, so that wasn't confusing stuff either). When I forced perf-report to use kallsyms it works, however perf-diff doesn't have that option. So there's two issues there, 1) perf-report failing to generate useful output and 2) per-diff lacking options to force it to behave. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
