From: Masami Hiramatsu <[email protected]>
Cut off the postfixes which gcc added for optimized routines from the
event name automatically generated from symbol name, since *probe-events
doesn't accept it. Those symbols will be used if we don't use debuginfo
to find target functions.
E.g. without this fix;
-----
# perf probe -va alloc_buf.isra.23
probe-definition(0): alloc_buf.isra.23
symbol:alloc_buf.isra.23 file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
[...]
Opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events write=1
Added new event:
Writing event: p:probe/alloc_buf.isra.23 _text+4869328
Failed to write event: Invalid argument
Error: Failed to add events. Reason: Invalid argument (Code: -22)
-----
With this fix;
-----
perf probe -va alloc_buf.isra.23
probe-definition(0): alloc_buf.isra.23
symbol:alloc_buf.isra.23 file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
[...]
Opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events write=1
Added new event:
Writing event: p:probe/alloc_buf _text+4869328
probe:alloc_buf (on alloc_buf.isra.23)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:alloc_buf -aR sleep 1
