Query the basic type information (byte-size and signed-flag) from
debuginfo and pass that to kprobe-tracer. This is especially useful
for tracing the members of data structure, because each member has
different byte-size on the memory.

Set given names to event arguments. The syntax is same as kprobe-tracer,
you can add 'NAME=' right before each argument.
e.g.
./perf probe vfs_read foo=file
then, 'foo' is set to the argument name as below.
./perf probe -l
probe:vfs_read (on vfs_read@linux-2.6-tip/fs/read_write.c with foo)

Support accessing members in the data structures. With this,
perf-probe accepts data-structure members(IOW, it now accepts
dot '.' and arrow '->' operators) as probe arguemnts.
e.g.
./perf probe --add 'schedule:44 rq->curr'
./perf probe --add 'vfs_read file->f_op->read file->f_path.dentry'
Note that '>' can be interpreted as redirection in command-line.

Introduce kprobe_trace_event and perf_probe_event and replace
old probe_point structure with it. probe_point structure is
not enough flexible nor extensible. New data structures
will help implementing further features.

Add --line option to support showing probable source-code lines.
perf probe --line SRC:LN[-LN|+NUM]
or
perf probe --line FUNC[:LN[-LN|+NUM]]
This option shows source-code with line number if the line can
be probed. Lines without line number (and blue color) means that
the line can not be probed, because debuginfo doesn't have the
information of those lines.
The argument specifies the range of lines, "source.c:100-120"
shows lines between 100th to l20th in source.c file. And
"func:10+20" shows 20 lines from 10th line of func function.
e.g.
# ./perf probe --line kernel/sched.c:1080
<kernel/sched.c:1080>
*
* called with rq->lock held and irqs disabled
*/
static void hrtick_start(struct rq *rq, u64 delay)

1086 ktime_t time = ktime_add_ns(timer->base->get_time(), delay);
hrtimer_set_expires(timer, time);

1093 __smp_call_function_single(cpu_of(rq), &rq->hrtick_csd,
1094 rq->hrtick_csd_pending = 1;
If you specifying function name, this shows function-relative
line number.

Fix perf probe to show which probe point is not found.
With out this patch, it shows just "No probe point found."
This doesn't help users if they specify several probes.
e.g.
# perf probe -f --add schedule --add test
Fatal: No probe point found.
This patch makes error message more helpful as below.
# perf probe --add schedule --add test
Fatal: Probe point 'test' not found. - probe not added.

Reject second attempt of adding same-name event. This patch
also provides --force option which allows user to add additional
probe events on the same-name event.
e.g.
(the first attempt : success)
./perf probe schedule
Added new event:
probe:schedule (on schedule+0)
(the second attempt : failure)
./perf probe schedule:11
Error: event "schedule" already exists. (Use -f to force duplicates.)
Fatal: Can't add new event.
(the second attempt with -f : successfully added)
./perf probe -f schedule:11
Added new event:
probe:schedule_1 (on schedule+45)

Support event name syntax for --add option. This allows
users to specify event name for each new event.
The --add syntax is:
perf probe --add '[EVENT=]SRC:LINE ARGS'
or
perf probe --add '[EVENT=]FUNC[+OFFS|%return|:RLN][@SRC] ARGS'
e.g.
./perf probe --add myprobe1=schedule
Note: currently group name is not supported yet, because it
can cause name-space confliction with other tracepoint/
hw-breakpoint events.

Add --list option for listing currently defined probe events
in the kernel. This shows events in below format;
[group:event] <perf-probe probe-definition>
for example:
[probe:schedule_0] schedule+30 cpu
Note that source file/line information is not supported yet.
So even if you added a probe by line, it will be shown in
<symbol+offset>.
