perf probe: Show accessible local variables
Add -V (--vars) option for listing accessible local variables at given probe point. This will help finding which local variables are available for event arguments. e.g.) # perf probe -V call_timer_fn:23 Available variables at call_timer_fn:23 @<run_timer_softirq+345> function_type* fn int preempt_count long unsigned int data struct list_head work_list struct list_head* head struct timer_list* timer struct tvec_base* base Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <20101021101323.3542.40282.stgit@ltc236.sdl.hitachi.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
