Subject: [PATCH perf/core ] perf-probe: Check kprobes blacklist when adding
new events
Recent linux kernel provides a blacklist of the functions which
can not be probed. perf probe can now check this blacklist before
setting new events and indicate better error message for users.
Without this patch,
----
# perf probe --add vmalloc_fault
Added new event:
Failed to write event: Invalid argument
Error: Failed to add events.
----
With this patch
----
# perf probe --add vmalloc_fault
Added new event:
Warning: Skipped probing on blacklisted function: vmalloc_fault
----
