[PATCH v8 6/6] perf probe: Support SDT markers having reference counter (semaphore)

Ravi Bangoria
2018-08-09T04:19:45Z

With this, perf buildid-cache will save SDT markers with reference
counter in probe cache. Perf probe will be able to probe markers
having reference counter. Ex,

# readelf -n /tmp/tick | grep -A1 loop2
Name: loop2
... Semaphore: 0x0000000010020036

# ./perf buildid-cache --add /tmp/tick
# ./perf probe sdt_tick:loop2
# ./perf stat -e sdt_tick:loop2 /tmp/tick
hi: 0
hi: 1
hi: 2
^C
Performance counter stats for '/tmp/tick':
3 sdt_tick:loop2
2.561851452 seconds time elapsed
