perf probe: Support adding probes on offline kernel modules
Support adding probes on offline kernel modules. This enables
perf-probe to trace kernel-module init functions via perf-probe.
If user gives the path of module with -m option, perf-probe
expects the module is offline.
This feature works with --add, --funcs, and --vars.
E.g)
# perf probe -m /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko \
-a "extent_io_init:5 extent_state_cache"
Add new events:
probe:extent_io_init (on extent_io_init:5 with extent_state_cache)
probe:extent_io_init_1 (on extent_io_init:5 with extent_state_cache)
You can now use it on all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:extent_io_init_1 -aR sleep 1
