Using it:


[root@zoo ~]# perf probe -v -m usbnet --add usbnet_start_xmit
probe-definition(0): usbnet_start_xmit
symbol:usbnet_start_xmit file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
0 arguments
Open Debuginfo file: /lib/modules/4.3.0-rc1+/kernel/drivers/net/usb/usbnet.ko
Try to find probe point from debuginfo.
Matched function: usbnet_start_xmit
Probe point found: usbnet_start_xmit+0
Found 1 probe_trace_events.
Opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing//kprobe_events write=1
Writing event: p:probe/usbnet_start_xmit usbnet:usbnet_start_xmit+0
Added new event:
  probe:usbnet_start_xmit (on usbnet_start_xmit in usbnet)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe:usbnet_start_xmit -aR sleep 1

[root@zoo ~]#

ot@zoo ~]# perf probe -m kvm --add apic_has_pending_timer
Added new event:
  probe:apic_has_pending_timer (on apic_has_pending_timer in kvm)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe:apic_has_pending_timer -aR sleep 1

[root@zoo ~]#

[root@zoo ~]# perf probe -m kvm -F ioapic*
ioapic_mmio_read
ioapic_mmio_write
ioapic_service
ioapic_set_irq
