[PATCH perf/core v9 05/16] perf probe: Use cache entry if possible

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Sat May 28 2016 - 11:16:09 EST


From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Before analyzing debuginfo, try to find a corresponding entry
from probe cache always. This does not depend on --cache,
the --cache enables to store/update cache, but looking up
the cache is always enabled.

Changes in v6:
- Remove fallback lookup routine by using function name
as cached event name, because it should be done by following
patch which supports %cached-event.
