Subject[PATCH 4.4 100/101] perf probe: Do not show the skipped events
Date
From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org>

commit f41ebe9defacddeae96a872a33f0f22ced0bfcef upstream.

When a probe point is expanded to several places (like inlined) and if
some of them are skipped because of blacklisted or __init function,
those trace_events has no event name. It must be skipped while showing
results.

Without this fix, you can see "(null):(null)" on the list,

# ./perf probe request_resource
reserve_setup is out of .text, skip it.
Added new events:
(null):(null) (on request_resource)
probe:request_resource (on request_resource)

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

perf record -e probe:request_resource -aR sleep 1

#

With this fix, it is ignored:

# ./perf probe request_resource
reserve_setup is out of .text, skip it.
Added new events:
probe:request_resource (on request_resource)

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

perf record -e probe:request_resource -aR sleep 1

#
