Mainline Linux tree for various devices, only for fun :)
a75af86b6f
When a map is create to represent the main kernel area (vmlinux) with
map__new2() we allocate an extra area to store a pointer to the 'struct
maps' for the kernel maps, so that we can access that struct when
loading ELF files or kallsyms, as we will need to split it in multiple
maps, one per kernel module or ELF section (such as ".init.text").
So when map->dso->kernel is non-zero, it is expected that
map__kmap(map)->kmaps to be set to the tree of kernel maps (modules,
chunks of the main kernel, bpf progs put in place via
PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL, the main kernel).
This was not the case when we were splitting the main kernel into chunks
for its ELF sections, which ended up making 'perf report --children'
processing a perf.data file with callchains to trip on
__map__is_kernel(), when we press ENTER to see the popup menu for main
histogram entries that starts at a symbol in the ".init.text" ELF
section, e.g.:
- 8.83% 0.00% swapper [kernel.vmlinux].init.text [k] start_kernel
start_kernel
cpu_startup_entry
do_idle
cpuidle_enter
cpuidle_enter_state
intel_idle
Fix it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
