Subject: [PATCH 4/8] perf probe: Show usage even if the last event is skipped
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2015 18:22:31 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1434576155-30038-5-git-send-email-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1434576155-30038-1-git-send-email-acme@kernel.org>

From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

When the last part of converted events are blacklisted or out-of-text,
those are skipped and perf probe doesn't show usage examples.  This
fixes it to show the example even if the last part of event list is
skipped.

E.g. without this patch, events are added, but suddenly end:

  # perf probe vfs_*
  vfs_caches_init_early is out of .text, skip it.
  vfs_caches_init is out of .text, skip it.
  Added new events:
    probe:vfs_fallocate  (on vfs_*)
    probe:vfs_open       (on vfs_*)
  ...
    probe:vfs_dentry_acceptable (on vfs_*)
    probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*)
  #

With this fix:

  # perf probe vfs_*
  vfs_caches_init_early is out of .text, skip it.
  vfs_caches_init is out of .text, skip it.
  Added new events:
    probe:vfs_fallocate  (on vfs_*)
  ...
    probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe:vfs_load_quota_inode -aR sleep 1

Note that this can be reproduced ONLY IF the vfs_caches_init* is the
last part of matched symbol list. I've checked this happens on
"3.19.0-generic #18-Ubuntu" kernel binary.
