Hi,

Here is the 4th version of the patchset for probe-cache and 
initial SDT support which are going to be perf-cache finally.

The previous version is here; https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/8/15/52

This version fixes some bugs and improve wildcard support (
including automatic target binary selection, we don't need
-x option for SDT/pre-cached events any more :) ),
and drops perf-record support currently because it seems more
work on cleanup side.

BTW, since I couldn't find list_dir function in Arnaldo's mail,
so this series still have a patch to add lsdir().

Note that all SDT events have "sdt_" prefix on the provider name,
because of easier to distinguish between other named caches.

TODOs:
 - (perf record) Support SDT event recording directly
 - (perf record) Support @FILE/@BUILDID suffix to record specific SDTs.
 - (perf record) Try to unregister SDT events after record.
 - (ftrace) Support multiple SDTs on single event.

Done:
 - (perf probe) Allow glob matching for pre-cached events.
 - (perf probe) Removes -x option when using pre-cached events.
 - (perf probe) Support @FILE/@BUILDID suffix for pre-cached events.
 - (perf buildid-cache) Fallback to old style buildid-cache.

Thank you,
