However, the result is still incorrect. For example: $ ./perf test -v 'filtering hist entries' 25: Test filtering hist entries : --- start --- test child forked, pid 4186 Cannot create kernel maps test child finished with 0 ---- end ---- Test filtering hist entries: Ok In this case the body of this test is not get executed at all, but the result is 'Ok'. Actually, in setup_fake_machine() there's no need to create real kernel maps. What we want is the fake maps. This patch removes the machine__create_kernel_maps() in setup_fake_machine(), so it won't be affected by kptr_restrict setting. Test result: $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict 1 $ ~/perf test -v hist 15: Test matching and linking multiple hists : --- start --- test child forked, pid 24031 test child finished with 0 ---- end ---- Test matching and linking multiple hists: Ok [SNIP] Signed-off-by: Wang Nan Suggested-by: Namhyung Kim Acked-by: Namhyung Kim Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Masami Hiramatsu --- tools/perf/tests/hists_common.c | 5 ----- 1 file changed, 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/tests/hists_common.c b/tools/perf/tests/hists_common.c index bcfd081..071a8b5 100644 --- a/tools/perf/tests/hists_common.c +++ b/tools/perf/tests/hists_common.c @@ -87,11 +87,6 @@ struct machine *setup_fake_machine(struct machines *machines) return NULL; } - if (machine__create_kernel_maps(machine)) { - pr_debug("Cannot create kernel maps\n"); - return NULL; - } - for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(fake_threads); i++) { struct thread *thread; -- 1.8.3.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
