perf probe: Fix to show correct error message for $vars and $params
Fix to show correct error messages for $vars and $params because those special variables requires debug information to find the real variables or function parameters. E.g. without this fix; ---- # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.23.so getaddrinfo \$params Failed to write event: Invalid argument Please upgrade your kernel to at least 3.14 to have access to feature $params Error: Failed to add events. ---- Perf ends up with an error, but the message is not correct. With this fix, perf shows correct error message as below. ---- # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.23.so getaddrinfo \$params The /usr/lib64/libc-2.23.so file has no debug information. Rebuild with -g, or install an appropriate debuginfo package. Error: Failed to add events. ---- Reported-and-Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Brendan Gregg <brendan.d.gregg@gmail.com> Cc: Hemant Kumar <hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/146831787438.17065.6152436996780110699.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
