The result just shows the address without symbols, which is not what is expected. So it's better to report errors and exit the program. * When using command perf report --kallsyms=/proc/kallsyms with a non-root user, symbols are resolved. Then select one symbol and annotate it, it reports the error as the following: Can't annotate __clear_user: No vmlinux file with build id xxx was found. The problem is caused by reading /proc/kcore without access permission. /proc/kcore requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability to access, so it needs to change access permission to allow a specific user to read /proc/kcore or use root to execute the perf command. This patch is to report errors when symbol files specified by users don't exist. And check access permission of /proc/kcore when reading it.
