This problem can be reproduced with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC enabled on
both x86_64 and aarch64 arch when using sysdig -B(using ebpf)[1].
sysdig -B works fine after rebuilding the kernel with
CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC disabled.
I tracked it down to the if condition event->rb->nr_pages != nr_pages
in perf_mmap is true when CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC is enabled where
event->rb->nr_pages = 1 and nr_pages = 2048 resulting perf_mmap to
return -EINVAL. This is because when CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC is
enabled, rb->nr_pages is always equal to 1.
Arch with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC enabled by default:
arc/arm/csky/mips/sh/sparc/xtensa
Arch with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC disabled by default:
x86_64/aarch64/...
Fix this problem by using data_page_nr()
