[Xen-users] some problem using xenoprofile 0.9.5

[박은병 <peb1611@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, I have some problem using xenoprof, patched oprofile 0.9.5.
 
xen 3.4.2, dom0 is jeremy's pvops 2.6.31.6 kernel, dom0 is vanila kernel 2.6.32 
linux distribution is ubuntu 9.10 karmic server i386.
 
I've built xen, dom0 domU successful and works well including booting dom0 and network configuration
 
So I've been trying to use xenoprofile for analyzing application behavior
 
But, xenoprof seems to be some tricky.
 
I've patch the oprofile 0.9.5 and built it successfully. because of my distribution is ubuntu, so opcontrol's basic shell have been modified from /bin/sh to /bin/bash. (I found that ubuntu's basic shell is not agreed with opcontrol shell script on internet)
 
and then, Now opcontrol shell script is works without any error message.
 
# opcontrol --start-daemon --xen=/boot/xen-syms-3.4.2 --vmlinux=/boot/vmlinux-2.6.31.6-xen 
Using 2.6+ OProfile kernel interface.
Reading module info.
Using log file /var/lib/oprofile/samples/oprofiled.log
Daemon started.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
but oprofile does not work well. right after above command dmesg reported some problematic message
