I just had a go (with this applied atop of v4.7-rc3), and I get:
root at ribbensteg:/home/nanook# ./kcov
mmap: No such device
The device exists (it was able to open the fd, evidently):
root at ribbensteg:/home/nanook# ls -al /sys/kernel/debug/kcov
-rw------- 1 root root 0 Jan 1 1970 /sys/kernel/debug/kcov
Strace show me:
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/kernel/debug/kcov", O_RDWR) = 3
ioctl(3, CHIOMOVE or CM_IOCGATR, 0x10000) = 0
mmap(NULL, 524288, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 3, 0) = -1 ENODEV (No such device)
It doesn't look like the error paths in kcov_mmap are hitting.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Mark.
