About every callchains recorded with perf record are filled up including the internal perfcounter nmi frame: perf_callchain perf_counter_overflow intel_pmu_handle_irq perf_counter_nmi_handler notifier_call_chain atomic_notifier_call_chain notify_die do_nmi nmi We want ignore this frame as it's not interesting for instrumentation. To solve this, we simply ignore every frames from nmi context. New example of "perf report -s sym -c" after this patch: 9.59% [k] search_by_key 4.88% search_by_key reiserfs_read_locked_inode reiserfs_iget reiserfs_lookup do_lookup __link_path_walk path_walk do_path_lookup user_path_at vfs_fstatat vfs_lstat sys_newlstat system_call_fastpath __lxstat 0x406fb1 3.19% search_by_key search_by_entry_key reiserfs_find_entry reiserfs_lookup do_lookup __link_path_walk path_walk do_path_lookup user_path_at vfs_fstatat vfs_lstat sys_newlstat system_call_fastpath __lxstat 0x406fb1 [...] For now this patch only solves the problem in x86-64.
