I can't get OProfile to give me profiling information for kernel symbols: # opreport --threshold=5 --symbols /boot/vmlinux-2.4.22-1.2188.nptlsmp CPU: PIII, speed 1004.54 MHz (estimated) Counted CPU_CLK_UNHALTED events (clocks processor is not halted) with a unit mask of 0x00 (No unit mask) count 502271 vma samples % symbol name 00000000 2034171 100.0000 (no symbols) I get the required information with a binary (or a shared object library). $ opreport --threshold=5 --no-header --symbols /usr/local/bin/xemacs-21.4.15 08083168 5249 10.2400 mark_object 08083670 3793 7.3995 mark_cons 08083e18 2975 5.8037 sweep_conses I started OProfile with: opcontrol --setup --event=default --vmlinux=/boot/vmlinux-`uname -r` --start and I am using: * oprofile-0.7cvs-0.20030829.6 (the latest for Fedora Core 1) * kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2188.nptl * kernel-source-2.4.22-1.2188.nptl The file /boot/System-map-2.4.22-1.2188.nptlsmp is present and seems to contain the required symbols. What am I doing wrong? Thanks. --- Vladimir ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Vladimir G.
