Hi Naveen,

I've tried following commands

$ grep "[Tt] user_read$" /proc/kallsyms  
0000000000000000 T user_read
0000000000000000 t user_read
$ sudo ./perf probe -D user_read%return
r:probe/user_read _text+3539616
r:probe/user_read_1 _text+3653408

OK, looks good. However, when I set the retprobes, I got an error.

$ sudo ./perf probe -a user_read%return
Failed to write event: Invalid argument
  Error: Failed to add events.

And kernel rejected that.

$ dmesg -k | tail -n 1
[  850.315068] Given offset is not valid for return probe.

Hmm, curious..

I tried normal probes

$ sudo ./perf probe -D user_read
p:probe/user_read _text+3539616
p:probe/user_read_1 _text+3653408
$ sudo ./perf probe -a user_read
Added new events:
  probe:user_read      (on user_read)
  probe:user_read_1    (on user_read)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe:user_read_1 -aR sleep 1

It works!

$ sudo ./perf probe -l
  probe:user_read      (on user_read@...urity/keys/user_defined.c)
  probe:user_read_1    (on user_read@...inux/ss/policydb.c)
$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/list
ffffffff9237bf20  k  user_read+0x0    [DISABLED][FTRACE]
ffffffff923602a0  k  user_read+0x0    [DISABLED][FTRACE]

So, the both "_text+3539616" and "_text+3653408" are correctly located
on the entry address of user_read functions. It seems kernel-side
symbol+offset check is wrong.

Thank you,
