Subject: [PATCH perf/core 5/5] perf-probe: Improve error message when %return is on inlined function
Date: Thu, 01 Oct 2015 01:41:37 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150930164137.3733.55055.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150930164126.3733.47708.stgit@localhost.localdomain>
perf probe shows more precisely message when it finds given
%return target function is inlined.
Without this fix:
----
# ./perf probe -V getname_flags%return
Return probe must be on the head of a real function.
Debuginfo analysis failed.
Error: Failed to show vars.
----
With this fix:
----
# ./perf probe -V getname_flags%return
Failed to find "getname_flags%return",
because getname_flags is an inlined function and has no return point.
Debuginfo analysis failed.
Error: Failed to show vars.
----
