Subject: perf fails to mmap data file (JFFS2)
Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2015 07:49:45 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1441266585059.29731@transmode.com> (raw)
perf on 4.1 fails to mmap the perf data file (in __perf_session__process_events) with error code 22 (invalid argument). I believe the JFFS2 file system does not support PROT_READ and MAP_SHARED. How can this be fixed? Can we change from MAP_SHARED to MAP_PRIVATE, or is there a reason to make it shared?
Thanks,
Kenth
