[PATCH V7 04/15] kprobes: Add perf ksymbol events for kprobe insn pages

From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Tue May 12 2020 - 08:19:27 EST


Symbols are needed for tools to describe instruction addresses. Pages
allocated for kprobe's purposes need symbols to be created for them.
Add such symbols to be visible via perf ksymbol events.
