perf list: Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix
If somebody happens to name an event with the beginning of 'tracepoint'
(e.g. tracepoint_foo), then it will never be showed with perf list
event_glob, thus we parse the argument 'tracepoint' more carefully for
accuracy.
Example:
Before this patch:
$ perf list tracepoint_foo:*
jbd2:jbd2_start_commit [Tracepoint event]
jbd2:jbd2_commit_locking [Tracepoint event]
jbd2:jbd2_run_stats [Tracepoint event]
block:block_rq_issue [Tracepoint event]
block:block_bio_complete [Tracepoint event]
block:block_bio_backmerge [Tracepoint event]
block:block_getrq [Tracepoint event]
... ...
As shown above, all of the tracepoint events are printed. In fact, the
command's real intention is to print the events of tracepoint_foo.
After this patch:
$ perf list tracepoint_foo:*
tracepoint_foo:tp_foo_enter [Tracepoint event]
tracepoint_foo:tp_foo_exit [Tracepoint event]
As shown above, only the events of tracepoint_foo are printed.
