[PATCH 3/3] perf/probe: Add --bootconfig to output definition in bootconfig format

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Fri Jun 04 2021 - 12:28:49 EST


Now the boot-time tracing supports the kprobes events and that
must be written in bootconfig file as following format.

ftrace.event.kprobes.<EVENT_NAME>.probes = <PROBE-DEF>

The perf probe already supports --definition (-D) action to
show the probe definitions, but the format is for the tracefs.

[p|r][:EVENT_NAME] <PROBE-DEF>

This adds --bootconfig option for -D action so that it output
the probe definitions in bootconfig fromat. E.g.

$ perf probe --bootconfig -D "path_lookupat:7 err:s32 s:string"
ftrace.event.kprobes.path_lookupat_L7.probe = 'path_lookupat.isra.0+309 err_s32=%ax:s32 s_string=+0(%r13):string'
