[PATCH perf/core v9 14/16] perf probe: Allow wildcard for cached events

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Sat May 28 2016 - 11:17:35 EST


Allo glob wildcard for reusing cached/SDT events. This also
automatically find the target binaries, e.g.

# perf probe -a %sdt_libc:\*

This example adds probes for all SDT in libc.
Note that the SDTs must have been scanned by perf buildid-cache.

Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>
---
Changes in v7:
- Continue to search caches if a build-id cache has no probe cache.
- Make probe_cache__open() to accept DSO__NAME_KALLSYMS for kernel.
- Fix to add probes correctly when a wildcard matchs both of
uprobes and kprobes.
Changes in v5.1:
- Fix a SEGV bug when a group name is omitted. (Thanks Hemant!)
