Stéphane, I don't know if it is due to a lack of experience compiling perfmon and pfmon, but I can't make pfmon work properly. First, I compile libpfm-3.51 in my home directory without any problem. Then, I compile pfmon-3.5 after modifying PFMROOTDIR in config.mk to make sure it looks for pflib in my home directory. Regardless it's compiled either dinamically or statically, I get an error when running pfmon:
./pfmon ../tests/noploop 100<pfmon fatal error @ [23806:23806] ip=0x400000000008f440 addr=0x18> <pfmon fatal error>, pfmon backtrace: 0x4000000000021d10 <pfmon_backtrace+0x40> 0x400000000000fb40 <segv_handler+0x80> 0xa0000000000107e0 0x400000000008f440 <default_smpl_check_new_samples+0xb0> 0x4000000000017c70 <__pfmon_process_smpl_buffer+0x140> 0x400000000001bd70 <pfmon_process_smpl_buf+0xa0> 0x4000000000040b10 <load_pid_map+0xf0> 0x4000000000030240 <pfmon_sdesc_new+0x8d0> 0x40000000000316d0 <task_create+0x610> 0x4000000000036b00 <task_mainloop+0x130> 0x400000000003b370 <measure_task+0xc0> 0x400000000000bd60 <run_measurements+0x1100> 0x4000000000016a00 <main+0x2ef0> 0x20000000002bfc20 <__libc_start_main+0x280> 0x4000000000006860 <_start+0x80> pfmon got a fatal SIGSEGV signal noploop for 100 seconds First time I tried, I realised pfmon was looking for libpfm in /usr/local despite the changes in config.mk. I modified LD_LIBRARY_PATH and then ldd showed that pfmon was now looking for libpfm in my home directory. However, it won't work. I don't know if it has something to do with the installed kernel patch or maybe the kernel version: uname -a Linux cn001 2.6.16.53-0.8_SFS2.3_0-default #1 SMP Mon Nov 5 14:15:47 CET 2007 ia64 ia64 ia64 GNU/Linux Any idea?
