Ok, how to add those entries?

[root@jouet hello_world]# perf probe -x /usr/bin/gcc -a %sdt_gcc:\*
Error: Failed to add events.
[root@jouet hello_world]# perf probe --verbose -x /usr/bin/gcc -a %sdt_gcc:\*
probe-definition(0): %sdt_gcc:*
0 arguments
symbol:throw file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
symbol:rethrow file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
symbol:catch file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
symbol:unwind file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
Error: Failed to add events. Reason: No such file or directory (Code: -2)
[root@jouet hello_world]#

Can those messages be improved? What am I missing?
