The "address" member of "struct probe_trace_point" uses long data type. If kernel is 64-bit and perf program is 32-bit, size of "address" variable is 32 bits. As a result, upper 32 bits of address read from kernel are truncated, an error occurs during address comparison in kprobe_warn_out_range(). Before: # perf probe -a schedule schedule is out of .text, skip it. Error: Failed to add events. Solution: Change data type of "address" variable to u64 and change corresponding address printing and value assignment. After: # perf.new.new probe -a schedule Added new event: probe:schedule (on schedule) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:schedule -aR sleep 1 # perf probe -l probe:schedule (on schedule@kernel/sched/core.c) # perf record -e probe:schedule -aR sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.156 MB perf.data (1366 samples) ] # perf report --stdio # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # # Total Lost Samples: 0 # # Samples: 1K of event 'probe:schedule' # Event count (approx.): 1366 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ............... ................. ............ # 6.22% migration/0 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.22% migration/1 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.22% migration/2 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.22% migration/3 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/10 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/11 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/12 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/13 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/14 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/15 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/4 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/5 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/6 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/7 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/8 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 6.15% migration/9 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule 0.22% rcu_sched [kernel.kallsyms] [k] schedule ... # # (Cannot load tips.txt file, please install perf!) # Signed-off-by: Yang Jihong <yangjihong1@huawei.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Frank Ch.

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.
