[PATCH 4.9] perf probe: Fix --funcs to show correct symbols for offline module

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Greg,
There's a bit more fallout from pulling in the patches we discussed in
this thread:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/7/5/537

While those patches fixed the build, I didn't get a chance to run a full
set of tests on the result.  Last week, when attempting to set a
kretprobe in a kernel module using 'perf probe' I hit an assertion that
triggers when you attempt to delete an object that's still in a tree.

It turned out that the patch below was also pushed around the same time
as the others that had been pulled into 4.9, and so we'd missed a case
where a refcount was not getting correctly incremented.  The patch below
is just a git cherry-pick of the commit from HEAD to the stable 4.9
branch.  This addressed the refcount assertion failure I was seeing.

Thanks,

-K

commit eebc509b20881b92d62e317b2c073e57c5f200f0 upstream.

Fix --funcs (-F) option to show correct symbols for offline module.
Since previous perf-probe uses machine__findnew_module_map() for offline
module, even if user passes a module file (with full path) which is for
other architecture, perf-probe always tries to load symbol map for
current kernel module.

This fix uses dso__new_map() to load the map from given binary as same
as a map for user applications.
