perf annotate: Fix s390 gap between kernel end and module start
During execution of command 'perf top' the error message: Not enough memory for annotating '__irf_end' symbol!) is emitted from this call sequence: __cmd_top perf_top__mmap_read perf_top__mmap_read_idx perf_event__process_sample hist_entry_iter__add hist_iter__top_callback perf_top__record_precise_ip hist_entry__inc_addr_samples symbol__inc_addr_samples symbol__get_annotation symbol__alloc_hist In this function the size of symbol __irf_end is calculated. The size of a symbol is the difference between its start and end address. When the symbol was read the first time, its start and end was set to: symbol__new: __irf_end 0xe954d0-0xe954d0 which is correct and maps with /proc/kallsyms: root@s8360046:~/linux-4.15.0/tools/perf# fgrep _irf_end /proc/kallsyms 0000000000e954d0 t __irf_end root@s8360046:~/linux-4.15.0/tools/perf# In function symbol__alloc_hist() the end of symbol __irf_end is symbol__alloc_hist sym:__irf_end start:0xe954d0 end:0x3ff80045a8 which is identical with the first module entry in /proc/kallsyms This results in a symbol size of __irf_req for histogram analyses of 70334140059072 bytes and a malloc() for this requested size fails. The root cause of this is function __dso__load_kallsyms() +-> symbols__fixup_end() Function symbols__fixup_end() enlarges the last symbol in the kallsyms map: # fgrep __irf_end /proc/kallsyms 0000000000e954d0 t __irf_end # to the start address of the first module: # cat /proc/kallsyms | sort | egrep ' [tT] ' .... 0000000000e952d0 T __security_initcall_end 0000000000e954d0 T __initramfs_size 0000000000e954d0 t __irf_end 000003ff800045a8 T fc_get_event_number [scsi_transport_fc] 000003ff800045d0 t store_fc_vport_disable [scsi_transport_fc] 000003ff800046a8 T scsi_is_fc_rport [scsi_transport_fc] 000003ff800046d0 t fc_target_setup [scsi_transport_fc] On s390 the kernel is located around memory address 0x200, 0x10000 or 0x100000, depending on linux version. Modules however start some- where around 0x3ff xxxx xxxx. This is different than x86 and produces a large gap for which histogram allocation fails. Fix this by detecting the kernel's last symbol and do no adjustment for it. Introduce a weak function and handle s390 specifics.
