Hi,

I'm trying to work with CoreSight and perf tool on my Juno r0 box. I was able to build the OpenCSD kernel (form the perf-opencsd-master branch) and install on the USB (I used the ArchLinuxARM-aarch64-latest.tar.gz). I also built the perf tool (make -C tools/perf). Everything is booting but the perf has some issues:

[root@alarm home]# ./perf record -vvv -e cs_etm/@20070000.etr/u --per-thread uname map_groups__set_modules_path_dir: cannot open /lib/modules/4.13.0-rc1-ge565ad6 dir Problems setting modules path maps, continuing anyway... ------------------------------------------------------------ perf_event_attr: type 8 size 112 { sample_period, sample_freq } 1 sample_type IP|TID|IDENTIFIER read_format ID disabled 1 exclude_kernel 1 exclude_hv 1 enable_on_exec 1 sample_id_all 1 ------------------------------------------------------------ sys_perf_event_open: pid 2242 cpu -1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 4 ------------------------------------------------------------ perf_event_attr: type 1 size 112 config 0x9 { sample_period, sample_freq } 1 sample_type IP|TID|IDENTIFIER read_format ID disabled 1 exclude_kernel 1 exclude_hv 1 mmap 1 comm 1 enable_on_exec 1 task 1 sample_id_all 1 mmap2 1 comm_exec 1 ------------------------------------------------------------ sys_perf_event_open: pid 2242 cpu -1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 5 mmap size 528384B AUX area mmap length 4194304 perf event ring buffer mmapped per thread failed to mmap AUX area failed to mmap with 12 (Cannot allocate memory)

I fixed the "map_groups__set_modules_path_dir: cannot open /lib/modules/4.13.0-rc1-ge565ad6 dir" issue by adding appropriate symbolic link but I still have an issue with the mmap. Any idea what can be wrong here (below limits that I have on my Juno)?
