[PATCH -tip 2/8] perf probe: Change probe-added message moreuser-friendly

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Tue Dec 08 2009 - 16:59:07 EST


Change probe-added message more user-friendly expression and
show usage of new events.

Before:
Added new event: p:probe/schedule_0 schedule+10 prev=%ax cpu=%bx

After:
Added new event:
probe:schedule_1 (on schedule+1 with prev cpu)

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

perf record -e probe:schedule_1 -a sleep 1
