Subject: [PATCH 5/5] perf probe: Trace a magic number if variable is not found
Trace a magic number as immediate value if the target variable
is not found at some probe points which is based on one probe
event.
This feature is good for the case if you trace a source code
line with some local variables, which is compiled into several
instructions and some of the variables are optimized out on
some instructions. Even if so, with this feature, perf probe
trace a magic number instead of such disappeared variables and
fold those probes on one event.
E.g. without this patch,
# perf probe -D "pud_page_vaddr pud"
