Thanks Masami! Now it behaves _exactly_ as I expected and need:

[root@zoo linux]# perf probe -L getname_flags:65
<getname_flags@/home/git/linux/fs/namei.c:65>
     65         result->uptr = filename;
     66         audit_getname(result);
                return result;
         
         error:
     70         final_putname(result);
     71         return err;
     72  }
         
         struct filename *
         getname(const char __user * filename)

[root@zoo linux]# perf probe -V getname_flags:65
Available variables at getname_flags:65
        @<getname_flags.part.35+178>
                char*   filename
                int*    empty
                long int        max
                struct filename*        result
[root@zoo linux]# perf probe 'getname_flags:66 pathname=result->name:string'
Added new event:
  probe:getname_flags  (on getname_flags:66 with pathname=result->name:string)

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

	perf record -e probe:getname_flags -aR sleep 1

[root@zoo linux]# perf record -a -e probe:getname_flags
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.252 MB perf.data (~54692 samples) ]
[root@zoo linux]# perf script | grep -v '# | head -5
> ^C
[root@zoo linux]# perf script | grep -v '^#' | head -5
        libvirtd  1163 [001] 100606.469450: probe:getname_flags: (ffffffff811a2f89) pathname="/proc/cpuinfo"
        libvirtd  1163 [001] 100606.469563: probe:getname_flags: (ffffffff811a2f89) pathname="/sys/devices/system/node"
        libvirtd  1163 [001] 100606.469596: probe:getname_flags: (ffffffff811a2f89) pathname="/sys/devices/system/node/node0"
        libvirtd  1163 [001] 100606.469612: probe:getname_flags: (ffffffff811a2f89) pathname="/sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpu0/online"
        libvirtd  1163 [001] 100606.469628: probe:getname_flags: (ffffffff811a2f89) pathname="/sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpu0/topology/physical_package_id"
[root@zoo linux]#

Thanks a lot, applied to my perf/urgent branch,
