Regarding vmlinux file for opcontrol --init

Hello,

I have installed Oprofile-0.9.9 on Ubuntu 15.10. I try to init oprofile
with'
opcontrol --init command, which requires uncompressed vmlinux file with
--vmlinux option.

I have tried to uncompress the present vmlinuz with extract-vmlinux script.
The file gts uncompressed,but when I init opcontrol with this uncompressed
file, my CPU type gets wrongly identified. Hence, although the hardware
events are supported by the processor, 'timer' mode gets set and event
monitoring doesn't become possible.

I would be thankful if anybody can guide me to solve this problem.
