[PATCH] tracepoint: Print the function symbol when tracepoint_debug is set
Posted by Huang Shijie 11 months, 1 week ago
When tracepoint_debug is set, we may get the output in kernel log:
     [  380.013843] Probe 0 : 00000000f0d68cda

It is not readable, so change to print the function symbol.
After this patch, the output may becomes:
     [   54.930567] Probe 0 : perf_trace_sched_wakeup_template

Can you resend this with linux-trace-kernel@vger.kernel.org please.

I probably should update the MAINTAINERS file and place this and
include/linux/tracepoint.h under TRACING.
