The perf report tool does not display the addresses of kernel module symbols correctly. For example symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd in kernel module qeth.ko has this relative address for function qeth_send_ipa_cmd() [root@s8360047 linux]# nm -g drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko | fgrep send_ipa_cmd 0000000000013088 T qeth_send_ipa_cmd The module is loaded at address [root@s8360047 linux]# cat /sys/module/qeth/sections/.text 0x000003ff80296d20 [root@s8360047 linux]# This should result in a start address of 0x13088 + 0x3ff80296d20 = 0x3ff802a9da8 Using crash to verify the address on a live system: [root@s8360046 linux]# crash vmlinux crash 7.1.9++ Copyright (C) 2002-2016 Red Hat, Inc.

The difference is from the offset the .text segment of qeth.ko: [root@s8360047 perf]# readelf -a drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko Section Headers: [Nr] Name Type Address Offset Size EntSize Flags Link Info Align [ 0] NULL 0000000000000000 00000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0 0 0 [ 1] .note.gnu.build-i NOTE 0000000000000000 00000040 0000000000000024 0000000000000000 A 0 0 4 [ 2] .text PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00000068 000000000001c8a0 0000000000000000 AX 0 0 8 As seen the .text segment has an offset of 0x68 with start address 0x0. Therefore 0x68 is added to the address of qeth_send_ipa_cmd and thus 0x13088 + 0x68 = 0x130f0 is displayed. This is wrong, perf report needs to display the start address of symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd at 0x13088 + qeth.ko.text section start address. The qeth.ko module .text start address is available in the qeth.ko DSO map. Just identify the kernel module symbols and correct the addresses. With the fix I see this correct address for symbol: symbol__new: qeth_send_ipa_cmd 0x3ff802a9da8-0x3ff802a9f86 I am not sure if this patch uses the perfect approach. Hints and sugguests welcome.I saw this problem on x86_64 too and I don't know why we add sh_offset to symbols. To me, current symbol code is somewhat hacky and needs some love. Thanks, NamhyungOkay, how do we continue with this issue? The patch I submitted uses a __weak function of s390x and does not address other platforms.Not sure. The symbol code is complex and needs to consider many cases. I think we need to rethink the 'adjust_symbols' logic and to check adding 'sh_offset' is valid.right, there are way too many details, we need more tests in 'perf test' and then go on simplifying that code. But as a first step I think we can add yet this arch specific bit, at least we will have it documented how this works in yet another arch, then, when simplifying the code, we would take it into account, and retest on those arches. - Arnaldo
Arnaldo, Namhyung, just a quick reminder, do you intend to pick these two patches? Should I resent them again? Please let me know?
