Add user memory access attribute for kprobe event arguments.
If a given 'local variable' is in user-space, User can
specify memory access method by '@user' suffix. This is
not only for string but also for data structure.
If we access a field of data structure in user memory from
kernel on some arch, it will fail. e.g.
perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority"
This will fail to access the "param->sched_priority" because
the param is __user pointer. Instead, we can now specify
@user suffix for such argument.
perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority@user"
Note that kernel memory access with "@user" must always fail
on any arch.

Support the special characters escaped by '\' in parser. This allows
user to specify versions directly like below.
=====
# ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state\\@GLIBC_2.2.5
Added new event:
probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5 in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_get_state -aR sleep 1
=====
Or, you can use separators in source filename, e.g.
=====
# ./perf probe -x /opt/test/a.out foo+bar.c:3
Semantic error :There is non-digit character in offset.
Error: Command Parse Error.
=====
Usually "+" in source file cause parser error, but
=====
# ./perf probe -x /opt/test/a.out foo\\+bar.c:4
Added new event:
probe_a:main (on @foo+bar.c:4 in /opt/test/a.out)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_a:main -aR sleep 1
=====
escaped "\+" allows you to specify that.

Add __return suffix for function return events automatically. Without
this, user have to give --force option and will see the number suffix
for each event like "function_1", which is not easy to recognize.
Instead, this adds __return suffix to it automatically. E.g.

Ignore the buildid of running kernel when both of --definition and
--vmlinux is given because that kernel should be off-line.
This also skips post-processing of kprobe event for relocating symbol

E.g. without this fix perf shows an error as below

The 'perf probe' tool detects a variable's type and use the detected
type to add a new probe. Then, kprobes prints its variable in
hexadecimal format if the variable is unsigned and prints in decimal if
it is signed.
We sometimes want to see unsigned variable in decimal format (i.e.
sector_t or size_t). In that case, we need to investigate the variable's
size manually to specify just signedness.
This patch add signedness casting support. By specifying "s" or "u" as a
type, perf-probe will investigate variable size as usual and use the
specified signedness.
E.g. without this:
$ perf probe -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector'
Added new event:
probe:submit_bio (on submit_bio with bi_sector=bio->bi_iter.bi_sector)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

$ perf probe -a 'submit_bio bio->bi_iter.bi_sector:s64'

'perf probe --del' removes caches when '--cache' is given. Note that
the delete pattern is not the same as for normal events.
If you cached probes with event name, --del "eventname" works as
expected. However, if you skipped it, the cached probes doesn't have
actual event name. In that case --del "probe-desc" is required (wildcard
is acceptable). For example a cache entry has the probe-desc "vfs_read
$params", you can remove it with --del 'vfs_read*'.

The probe plugin requires access to the source code for some operations. The
source code must be in the exact same location as specified by the DWARF tags,
but sometimes the location is an absolute path that cannot be replicated by a
normal user. This change adds the -s|--source option to allow the user to
specify the root of the kernel source tree.

Set the last field name to the argument name when the argument
is refering a data-structure member.
e.g.
./perf probe --add 'vfs_read file->f_mode'
Add new event:
probe:vfs_read (on vfs_read with f_mode=file->f_mode)
This probe records file->f_mode, but the argument name becomes "f_mode".
This enables perf-trace command to parse trace event format correctly.

Add lazy line matching support for specifying new probes.
This also changes the syntax of perf probe a bit. Now
perf probe accepts one of below probe event definitions.
1) Define event based on function name
[EVENT=]FUNC[@SRC][:RLN|+OFF|%return|;PTN] [ARG ...]
2) Define event based on source file with line number
[EVENT=]SRC:ALN [ARG ...]
3) Define event based on source file with lazy pattern
[EVENT=]SRC;PTN [ARG ...]
- New lazy matching pattern(PTN) follows ';' (semicolon). And it
must be put the end of the definition.
- So, @SRC is no longer the part which must be put at the end
of the definition.
Note that ';' (semicolon) can be interpreted as the end of
a command by the shell. This means that you need to quote it.
(anyway you will need to quote the lazy pattern itself too,
because it may contains other sensitive characters, like
'[',']' etc.).
Lazy matching
-------------
The lazy line matching is similar to glob matching except
ignoring spaces in both of pattern and target.
e.g.
'a=*' can matches 'a=b', 'a = b', 'a == b' and so on.
This provides some sort of flexibility and robustness to
probe point definitions against minor code changes.
(for example, actual 10th line of schedule() can be changed
easily by modifying schedule(), but the same line matching
'rq=cpu_rq*' may still exist.)
Changes in v3:
- Cast Dwarf_Addr to uintmax_t for printf-formats.
Changes in v2:
- Cast Dwarf_Addr to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

Add --line option to support showing probable source-code lines.
perf probe --line SRC:LN[-LN|+NUM]
or
perf probe --line FUNC[:LN[-LN|+NUM]]
This option shows source-code with line number if the line can
be probed. Lines without line number (and blue color) means that
the line can not be probed, because debuginfo doesn't have the
information of those lines.
The argument specifies the range of lines, "source.c:100-120"
shows lines between 100th to l20th in source.c file. And
"func:10+20" shows 20 lines from 10th line of func function.
e.g.
# ./perf probe --line kernel/sched.c:1080
<kernel/sched.c:1080>
*
* called with rq->lock held and irqs disabled
*/
static void hrtick_start(struct rq *rq, u64 delay)
{
struct hrtimer *timer = &rq->hrtick_timer;
1086 ktime_t time = ktime_add_ns(timer->base->get_time(), delay);
hrtimer_set_expires(timer, time);
1090 if (rq == this_rq()) {
1091 hrtimer_restart(timer);
1092 } else if (!rq->hrtick_csd_pending) {
1093 __smp_call_function_single(cpu_of(rq), &rq->hrtick_csd,
1094 rq->hrtick_csd_pending = 1;
If you specifying function name, this shows function-relative
line number.
# ./perf probe --line schedule
<schedule:0>
asmlinkage void __sched schedule(void)
1 {
struct task_struct *prev, *next;
unsigned long *switch_count;
struct rq *rq;
int cpu;
need_resched:
preempt_disable();
9 cpu = smp_processor_id();
10 rq = cpu_rq(cpu);
11 rcu_sched_qs(cpu);
12 prev = rq->curr;
13 switch_count = &prev->nivcsw;
