perf probe: Fix to get correct modname from elf header
[ Upstream commit 1f2ed153b916c95a49a1ca9d7107738664224b7f ] Since 'perf probe' supports cross-arch probes, it is possible to analyze different arch kernel image which has different bits-per-long. In that case, it fails to get the module name because it uses the MOD_NAME_OFFSET macro based on the host machine bits-per-long, instead of the target arch bits-per-long. This fixes above issue by changing modname-offset based on the target archs bit width. This is ok because linux kernel uses LP64 model on 64bit arch. E.g. without this (on x86_64, and target module is arm32): $ perf probe -m build-arm/fs/configfs/configfs.ko -D configfs_lookup p:probe/configfs_lookup :configfs_lookup+0 ^-Here is an empty module name. With this fix, you can see correct module name: $ perf probe -m build-arm/fs/configfs/configfs.ko -D configfs_lookup p:probe/configfs_lookup configfs:configfs_lookup+0 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/148337043836.6752.383495516397005695.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@verizon.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
