perf probe: Accept the instance number of kretprobe event
Since the commit 6a13a0d7 ("ftrace/kprobe: Show the maxactive number on kprobe_events") introduced to show the instance number of kretprobe events, the length of the 1st format of the kprobe event will not 1, but it can be longer. This caused a parser error in perf-probe. Skip the length check the 1st format of the kprobe event to accept this instance number. Without this fix: # perf probe -a vfs_read%return Added new event: probe:vfs_read__return (on vfs_read%return) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:vfs_read__return -aR sleep 1 # perf probe -l Semantic error :Failed to parse event name: r16:probe/vfs_read__return Error: Failed to show event list. And with this fixes: # perf probe -a vfs_read%return ... # perf probe -l probe:vfs_read__return (on vfs_read%return) Fixes: 6a13a0d7 ("ftrace/kprobe: Show the maxactive number on kprobe_events") Reported-by: Yuxuan Shui <yshuiv7@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Tested-by: Yuxuan Shui <yshuiv7@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207587 Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/158877535215.26469.1113127926699134067.stgit@devnote2Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
