perf probe: Use existing routine to look for a kernel module by dso->short_name
We have map_groups__find_by_name() to look at the list of modules that are in place for a given machine, so use it instead of traversing the machine dso list, which also includes DSOs for userspace. When merging the user and kernel DSO lists a bug was introduced where 'perf probe' stopped being able to add probes to modules using its short name: # perf probe -m usbnet --add usbnet_start_xmit usbnet_start_xmit is out of .text, skip it. Error: Failed to add events. # With this fix it works again: # perf probe -m usbnet --add usbnet_start_xmit Added new event: probe:usbnet_start_xmit (on usbnet_start_xmit in usbnet) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:usbnet_start_xmit -aR sleep 1 # Reported-by: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Fixes: 3d39ac538629 ("perf machine: No need to have two DSOs lists") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150924015008.GE1897@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
