So, ok, I managed with:
[root@...et ~]# perf probe -x /usr/bin/gcc %sdt_libstdcxx:\*
Added new events:
sdt_libstdcxx:throw (on %* in /usr/bin/gcc)
sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow (on %* in /usr/bin/gcc)
sdt_libstdcxx:catch (on %* in /usr/bin/gcc)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e sdt_libstdcxx:catch -aR sleep 1
[root@...et ~]#
I then tried to remove the events just created:
# perf probe -d %sdt_libstdcxx:\*
#
It tells me nothing, cool, probably it removed it all, then I go and
try re-adding them:
[root@...et ~]# perf probe -x /usr/bin/gcc %sdt_libstdcxx:\*
Error: event "throw" already exists.
Hint: Remove existing event by 'perf probe -d'
or force duplicates by 'perf probe -f'
or set 'force=yes' in BPF source.
Error: Failed to add events.
[root@...et ~]#
Huh?
Then I tried like you did above, using 'perf list sdt'
[root@...et ~]# perf list sdt
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
[root@...et ~]#
But they appear via 'perf probe -l'
[root@...et ~]# perf probe -l sdt_libs*
sdt_libstdcxx:catch (on execute_cfa_program+1551@...../../libgcc/unwind-dw2.c in /usr/bin/gcc)
sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow (on d_print_subexpr+280@...supc++/cp-demangle.c in /usr/bin/gcc)
sdt_libstdcxx:throw (on d_print_subexpr+93@...supc++/cp-demangle.c in /usr/bin/gcc)
[root@...et ~]#
There is no event, then, guessing, I tried removing that %, since I don't see
it in the 'perf probe -l' output, so it must've been just some distracting
artifact at the time of adding the SDT prove:
[root@...et ~]# perf probe -d sdt_libstdcxx:\*
Removed event: sdt_libstdcxx:catch
Removed event: sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow
Removed event: sdt_libstdcxx:throw
[root@...et ~]# perf probe -l sdt_libs*
[root@...et ~]#
Ok, now it works, but then if I try having both the gcc and libstdc++ ones, I can't:
[root@...et ~]# perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 %sdt_libstdcxx:\*
Error: event "catch" already exists.
Hint: Remove existing event by 'perf probe -d'
or force duplicates by 'perf probe -f'
or set 'force=yes' in BPF source.
Error: Failed to add events.
So I forced it:
[root@...et ~]# perf probe -f -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 %sdt_libstdcxx:\*
Added new events:
sdt_libstdcxx:catch_1 (on %* in /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22)
sdt_libstdcxx:throw_1 (on %* in /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22)
sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow_1 (on %* in /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e sdt_libstdcxx:rethrow_1 -aR sleep 1
[root@...et ~]#
If it will rename it, why require -f? Where is the duplicity?
If I go and re-read all the discussion on the thread that lead to these
patches, I may figure out all those questions, but then, that would be a lot
of info to have in mind :-\
I.e. I would suggest that no -f should be needed, that that "Error: event
"catch" already exists" shouldn't be even emitted, since those will be
different events, i.e. one is named "sdt_libstdcxx:catch" and the other
"sdt_libstdcxx:catch_1"...
But that becomes an usability problem, couldn't it have the basename in it?
I.e.:
sdt_gcc_libstdcxx:catch and sdt_libstdc++:catch?
I'm going to look my inbox for patches I overlook that added 'perf list sdt'...
