[PATCH v11 33/39] perf record: Probe at kprobe points

From: Wang Nan
Date: Wed Jul 08 2015 - 09:16:18 EST


In this patch, kprobe points are created using add_perf_probe_events.
Since all events are already grouped together in an array, calling
add_perf_probe_events() creates all of them.

probe_conf.max_probes is set to MAX_PROBES to support glob matching.
