When failing due to asking for a number of mmap pages that is more than the max, it was suggesting that an even bigger number of mmap pages should be specified, doh, au contraire! Before: [acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace -m 128 usleep 1 Error: Operation not permitted. Hint: Check /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb (516 kB) setting. Hint: Tried using 516 kB. Hint: Try using a bigger -m/--mmap-pages value. [acme@ssdandy linux]$ After: [acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace -m 128 usleep 1 Error: Operation not permitted. Hint: Check /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb (516 kB) setting. Hint: Tried using 516 kB. Hint: Try using a smaller -m/--mmap-pages value. [acme@ssdandy linux]$ And to (really) clarify what happens above, when what the user requests is <= max and even then it fails, a changeset is being made to tell that this is a per user limit, not per process (in the above example there was another 'perf trace' running for this user, which was using all the pages it could use).
