Re:Thanks for your review. You are right.
1. Only function symbols should be returned here, not function descriptors.
I've moved the modification into function "find_probe_functions()",
and the new patch is added at the end of this email. I've re-tested it on my environment.
Please review it again, thanks.
2. Function find_probe_functions only use in "perf probe".
Malfunction exist for all export functions, another example:
cat /proc/kallsyms | grep -w sys_fork
c000000000058100 T .sys_fork
c000000000d485e0 D sys_fork
perf probe -a sys_fork -v
No kprobe blacklist support, ignored
Looking at the vmlinux_path (8 entries long)
symsrc__init: cannot get elf header.
Could not open debuginfo. Try to use symbols.

Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/perf: fix ppc64 perf probe add events failed
Because of commit bf794bf52a80 ("powerpc/kprobes: Fix kallsyms lookup
across powerpc ABIv1 and ABIv2"), in ppc64 ABIv1, our perf command
eliminates the need to use the prefix "." at the symbol name. But when
the command "perf probe -a schedule" is executed on ppc64 ABIv1, it
obtains two symbol address information through /proc/kallsyms, for example:
cat /proc/kallsyms | grep -w schedule
c000000000657020 T .schedule
c000000000d4fdb8 D schedule
The symbol "D schedule" is not a function symbol, and perf will print:
"p:probe/schedule _text+13958584"Failed to write event: Invalid argument
Therefore, when searching symbols from map and adding probe point for
them, a symbol type check is added. If the type of symbol is not a
function, skip it.
Fixes: bf794bf52a80 ("powerpc/kprobes: Fix kallsyms lookup across
powerpc ABIv1 and ABIv2")
