perf probe: Remove caches when --cache is given
'perf probe --del' removes caches when '--cache' is given. Note that the delete pattern is not the same as for normal events. If you cached probes with event name, --del "eventname" works as expected. However, if you skipped it, the cached probes doesn't have actual event name. In that case --del "probe-desc" is required (wildcard is acceptable). For example a cache entry has the probe-desc "vfs_read $params", you can remove it with --del 'vfs_read*'. ----- # perf probe --cache --list /[kernel.kallsyms] (1466a0a250b5d0070c6d0f03c5fed30b237970a1): vfs_read $params /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so (c31ffe7942bfd77b2fca8f9bd5709d387a86d3bc): getaddrinfo $params # perf probe --cache --del vfs_read\* Removed cached event: probe:vfs_read # perf probe --cache --list /[kernel.kallsyms] (1466a0a250b5d0070c6d0f03c5fed30b237970a1): /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so (c31ffe7942bfd77b2fca8f9bd5709d387a86d3bc): getaddrinfo $params ----- Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Brendan Gregg <brendan.d.gregg@gmail.com> Cc: Hemant Kumar <hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/146736021651.27797.10250879847070772920.stgit@devboxSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
