Add the breakpoint events support with this new sysnopsis: mem:addr[:access] Where addr is a raw addr value in the kernel and access can be either [r][w][x] Example to profile tasklist_lock: $ grep tasklist_lock /proc/kallsyms ffffffff8189c000 D tasklist_lock $ perf record -e mem:0xffffffff8189c000:rw -a -f -c 1 $ perf report # Samples: 62 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ............... ............. ...... # 29.03% swapper [kernel] [k] _raw_read_trylock 29.03% swapper [kernel] [k] _raw_read_unlock 19.35% init [kernel] [k] _raw_read_trylock 19.35% init [kernel] [k] _raw_read_unlock 1.61% events/0 [kernel] [k] _raw_read_trylock 1.61% events/0 [kernel] [k] _raw_read_unlock Coming soon: - Support for symbols in the event definition. - Default period to 1 for breakpoint events because these are not high frequency events. The same thing is needed for trace events.
