Subject: [GIT PULL] tracing/kprobes: Syntax updates, introduce perf probe
Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2009 00:25:01 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1255386309-4992-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)
Ingo,
I've tested a little this set and it seems to work well. I can't test
the C expression parser (need some libdwarf cross-version compatiblity),
but I can create kprobes via low-level parameters, then launch
perf record and perf trace successfully. I'll need to update
perf trace to handle variables that start with '$' characters though.
Anyway, it's still unstable but I guess pulling it would
help Masami to continue without the need to handle the
whole batch.
Please pull the tracing/kprobes branch that can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/random-tracing.git
tracing/kprobes
Thanks,
Frederic.
Masami Hiramatsu (7):
tracing/kprobes: Add $ prefix to special variables
tracing/kprobes: Remove '$ra' special variable
tracing/kprobes: Make special variable names more self-explainable
tracing/kprobes: Avoid field name confliction
tracing/kprobes: Robustify fixed field names against variable field names conflicts
perf: Add perf probe subcommand, a kprobe-event setup helper
perf probe: Add perf probe command support without libdwarf
