perf test: Allow multiple probes in record+script_probe_vfs_getname.sh
Sometimes when adding a kprobe by perf, it results in multiple probe points, such as the following: # ./perf probe -l probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname) probe:vfs_getname_1 (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname) probe:vfs_getname_2 (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events p:probe/vfs_getname _text+5501804 pathname=+0(+0(%gpr31)):string p:probe/vfs_getname_1 _text+5505388 pathname=+0(+0(%gpr31)):string p:probe/vfs_getname_2 _text+5508396 pathname=+0(+0(%gpr31)):string In this test, we need to record all of them and expect any of them in the perf-script output, since it's not clear which one will be used for the desired syscall: # perf stat -e probe:vfs_getname\* -- touch /tmp/nic Performance counter stats for 'touch /tmp/nic': 31 probe:vfs_getname_2 0 probe:vfs_getname_1 1 probe:vfs_getname 0.001421826 seconds time elapsed 0.001506000 seconds user 0.000000000 seconds sys If the test relies only on probe:vfs_getname, it might easily miss the relevant data.
