Ah, good point! On Arm/arm64 platforms, if we want to parse kernel address space with considering eBPF/module, the kernel start address needs to be compensated in the function machine__get_kernel_start(), so this can let PMU or other events to work correctly. Will wait a bit if Arnaldo could give out guidance. > > $(call detected,CONFIG_LIBOPENCSD) > > ifdef CSTRACE_RAW > > CFLAGS += -DCS_DEBUG_RAW > > diff --git a/tools/perf/util/cs-etm.c b/tools/perf/util/cs-etm.c > > index 0c7776b51045..5fa0be3a3904 100644 > > --- a/tools/perf/util/cs-etm.c > > +++ b/tools/perf/util/cs-etm.c > > @@ -613,10 +613,27 @@ static void cs_etm__free(struct perf_session *session) > > static u8 cs_etm__cpu_mode(struct cs_etm_queue *etmq, u64 address) > > { > > struct machine *machine; > > + u64 fixup_kernel_start = 0; > > > > machine = etmq->etm->machine; > > > > - if (address >= etmq->etm->kernel_start) { > > + /* > > + * Since arm and arm64 specify some memory regions prior to > > + * 'kernel_start', kernel addresses can be less than 'kernel_start'. > > + * > > + * For arm architecture, the 16MB virtual memory space prior to > > + * 'kernel_start' is allocated to device modules, a PMD table if > > + * CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled and a PGD table. > > + * > > + * For arm64 architecture, the root PGD table, device module memory > > + * region and BPF jit region are prior to 'kernel_start'. > > + * > > + * To reflect the complete kernel address space, compensate these > > + * pre-defined regions for kernel start address. > > + */ > > + fixup_kernel_start = etmq->etm->kernel_start - ARM_PRE_START_SIZE; > > + > > + if (address >= fixup_kernel_start) { > > if (machine__is_host(machine)) > > return PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL; > > else > > Tested-by: Mathieu Poirier <mathieu.poirier@linaro.org> Thanks a lot for the reviewing & testing; and very appreciate your much consumed time :) Thanks, Leo Yan

Arm and arm64 architecture reserve some memory regions prior to the symbol '_stext' and these memory regions later will be used by device module and BPF jit. The current code misses to consider these memory regions thus any address in the regions will be taken as user space mode, but perf cannot find the corresponding dso with the wrong CPU mode so we misses to generate samples for device module and BPF related trace data. This patch parse the link scripts to get the memory size prior to start address and reduce this size from 'etmq->etm->kernel_start', then can get a fixed up kernel start address which contain memory regions for device module and BPF. Finally, cs_etm__cpu_mode() can return right mode for these memory regions and perf can successfully generate samples. The reason for parsing the link scripts is Arm architecture changes text offset dependent on different platforms, which define multiple text offsets in $kernel/arch/arm/Makefile. This offset is decided when build kernel and the final value is extended in the link script, so we can extract the used value from the link script. We use the same way to parse arm64 link script as well. If fail to find the link script, the pre start memory size is assumed as zero, in this case it has no any change caused with this patch. Below is detailed info for testing this patch: - Build LLVM/Clang 8.0 or later version; - Configure perf with ~/.perfconfig: root@debian:~# cat ~/.perfconfig # this file is auto-generated.
