[PATCH 28/35] perf probe: Add supported for type casting by the running kernel

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Tue Aug 23 2016 - 17:05:15 EST


From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add a checking routine what types are supported by the running kernel by
finding the pattern in <debugfs>/tracing/README.

[ 'enum probe_type' has no negative entries, so ends up as 'unsigned', remove '< 0'
test to fix the build on at least centos:5, debian:7 & ubuntu:12.04.5 ]
