Masami, have you stumbled on this already?

[root@seventh ~]# perf probe security_locked_down%return 'ret=$retval'
Added new event:
probe:security_locked_down__return (on security_locked_down%return with ret=$retval)

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

perf record -e probe:security_locked_down__return -aR sleep 1

[root@seventh ~]# perf probe security_locked_down what
Added new event:
probe:security_locked_down (on security_locked_down with what)

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

perf record -e probe:security_locked_down -aR sleep 1
