[PATCH tracing/kprobes v2 5/5] perf: kprobe command supports withoutlibdwarf

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Fri Oct 02 2009 - 17:47:55 EST


Enables perf-kprobe even if libdwarf is installed. If libdwarf is not found,
perf-kprobe just disables dwarf support. Users can use perf-kprobe to set
up new events by using kprobe_events format.
