perf probe: Set retprobe flag when probe in address-based alternative mode
When perf probe searched in a debuginfo file and failed, it tried with
an alternative, in function get_alternative_probe_event():
memcpy(tmp, &pev->point, sizeof(*tmp));
memset(&pev->point, 0, sizeof(pev->point));
In this case, it drops the retprobe flag and forgets to set it back in
find_alternative_probe_point(), so the problem occurs.
Can be reproduced as following:
$ perf probe -v -k vmlinux --add='sys_write%return'
...
Added new event:
Writing event: p:probe/sys_write _stext+1584952
probe:sys_write (on sys_write%return)
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
p:probe/sys_write _stext+1584952
After this patch:
$ perf probe -v -k vmlinux --add='sys_write%return'
Added new event:
Writing event: r:probe/sys_write SyS_write+0
probe:sys_write (on sys_write%return)
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
r:probe/sys_write SyS_write
