kernel: 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64
perf: latest acme's perf/core (06de626 perf evlist: Fix
perf_evlist__mmap_read event overflow )
plus your V5 patches
commands:
sudo ./perf record -e cycles:k -a
sudo ./perf report

the rest of the instruction decode differs.. just the first
line is same for all
addresses seem ok:
[jolsa@krava perf]$ egrep
'ffffffff8135f490|ffffffff810bc270|ffffffffa0086630|ffffffffa0414a50'
/proc/kallsyms
ffffffff810bc270 T smp_call_function_many
ffffffff8135f490 t intel_idle
ffffffffa0414a50 t iwl_trans_pcie_read32 [iwlwifi]
ffffffffa0086630 t i915_gem_write_fence__ipi [i915]
so.. the name of the section, name of the <function> plus the first
instruction decode seem wrong.. I can see that in every symbol I
annotate in the report and in annotate command as well.
