From: Masami Hiramatsu Support adding probes on offline kernel modules. This enables perf-probe to trace kernel-module init functions via perf-probe. If user gives the path of module with -m option, perf-probe expects the module is offline. This feature works with --add, --funcs, and --vars. E.g) # perf probe -m /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko \ -a "extent_io_init:5 extent_state_cache" Add new events: probe:extent_io_init (on extent_io_init:5 with extent_state_cache) probe:extent_io_init_1 (on extent_io_init:5 with extent_state_cache) You can now use it on all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:extent_io_init_1 -aR sleep 1 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110627072751.6528.10230.stgit@fedora15 Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt --- tools/perf/Documentation/perf-probe.txt | 6 ++- tools/perf/builtin-probe.c | 3 +- tools/perf/util/probe-event.c | 52 +++++++++++++++++++++++++----- 3 files changed, 49 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-probe.txt b/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-probe.txt index 02bafce..2780d9c 100644 --- a/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-probe.txt +++ b/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-probe.txt @@ -34,9 +34,11 @@ OPTIONS Specify vmlinux path which has debuginfo (Dwarf binary). -m:: ---module=MODNAME:: +--module=MODNAME|PATH:: Specify module name in which perf-probe searches probe points - or lines. + or lines.
