Subject: [PATCH V5 0/9] perf tools: kcore improvements
Date: Tue,  8 Oct 2013 11:45:47 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1381221956-16699-1-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com> (raw)

Hi

Here are some improvements for using kcore (version 5).  There are 3
improvements:

	- validate that kcore matches the perf.data modules
	- workaround objdump difficulties with kcore
	- add kcore to the build-id cache

Changes in V5:
	perf tools: make a separate function to parse /proc/modules
		Use scnprintf not snprintf
	perf tools: validate kcore module addresses
		Fix check for mi->name not allocated
	perf buildid-cache: add ability to add kcore to the cache
		Use scnprintf not snprintf
	perf tools: add ability to find kcore in build-id cache
		Use scnprintf not snprintf

Changes in V4:
	perf tools: fix path unpopulated in machine__create_modules()
		Dropped because it has been applied
	perf buildid-cache: add ability to add kcore to the cache
		Tweaked Documentation/perf-buildid-cache.txt
	perf tools: add ability to find kcore in build-id cache
		Changed to check read access to /proc/kcore before
		skipping the buildid cache

Changes in V3:
	perf tools: workaround objdump difficulties with kcore
		change strncpy to strlcpy
	perf buildid-cache: add ability to add kcore to the cache
		change strncpy to strlcpy
	perf tools: add ability to find kcore in build-id cache
		change strncpy to strlcpy
Changes in V2:
	perf tools: fix buildid cache handling of kallsyms with kcore
		Dropped because it has been applied
	perf tools: fix path unpopulated in machine__create_modules()
		Use 'modules' pointer
