So, more info, but executive summary: distro kernels don't exhibit this
problem, but they have CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE=y, the kernel where I
noticed this problem (4.7.0+) doesn't exhibit this problem when used
with 'nokaslr', but I think more investigation is needed to get to the
bottom of this, i.e. to emit meaningful messages when kaslr is in place
(or is suspected to be):
Using a distro kernel:
[root@jouet ~]# uname -r
4.6.4-301.fc24.x86_64
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe sys_epoll_wait
Added new event:
probe:sys_epoll_wait (on sys_epoll_wait)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_epoll_wait -aR sleep 1
[root@jouet ~]# rpm -q kernel-debuginfo
kernel-debuginfo-4.6.3-300.fc24.x86_64
[root@jouet ~]# uname -r
4.6.4-301.fc24.x86_64
[root@jouet ~]#
So it must be using just /proc/kallsyms, since there is no matching vmlinux:
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -d *:*
Removed event: probe:sys_epoll_wait
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -v sys_epoll_wait
probe-definition(0): sys_epoll_wait
symbol:sys_epoll_wait file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
0 arguments
Looking at the vmlinux_path (8 entries long)
symsrc__init: cannot get elf header.
Could not open debuginfo. Try to use symbols.

Ok, installing a matching kernel vmlinux:
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -d *:*
Removed event: probe:sys_epoll_wait
[root@jouet ~]# dnf debuginfo-install kernel
Trying again:
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -v sys_epoll_wait

So, a distro kernel works with or without vmlinux, but then...
[root@jouet ~]# grep RANDOMIZE_BASE /boot/config-4.6.4-301.fc24.x86_64
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE=y
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET=0x40000000
[root@jouet ~]#
It also has kaslr :-\ Rebooting with the kernel where the problem happened,
this time with nokaslr:
[root@jouet ~]# uname -r
4.7.0+
[root@jouet ~]# cat /proc/cmdline

It works, but why was annotation worked when "nokaslr" wasn't used?
