[ Upstream commit60490e7966] This problem can be reproduced with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC enabled on both x86_64 and aarch64 arch when using sysdig -B(using ebpf)[1]. sysdig -B works fine after rebuilding the kernel with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC disabled. I tracked it down to the if condition event->rb->nr_pages != nr_pages in perf_mmap is true when CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC is enabled where event->rb->nr_pages = 1 and nr_pages = 2048 resulting perf_mmap to return -EINVAL. This is because when CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC is enabled, rb->nr_pages is always equal to 1. Arch with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC enabled by default: arc/arm/csky/mips/sh/sparc/xtensa Arch with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC disabled by default: x86_64/aarch64/... Fix this problem by using data_page_nr() [1] https://github.com/draios/sysdig Fixes:906010b213("perf_event: Provide vmalloc() based mmap() backing") Signed-off-by: Zhipeng Xie <xiezhipeng1@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220209145417.6495-1-xiezhipeng1@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
