How about changing it to:
4) Pre-defined (SDT) or cached events
%EVENTNAME
?
Btw, is it possible to use group name here? The SDT will use
sdt_<libname> for group name and <provider>_<event> for event name,
right? So is it for cached events and does it support defining group
name when added like below?
# perf probe -x ./perf --cache --add 'mygroup:myevent=main'
Thanks,
