- References: <20091208220232.10142.2643.stgit@dhcp-100-2-132.bos.redhat.com>
Change probe-added message more user-friendly expression and
show usage of new events.
Before:
Added new event: p:probe/schedule_0 schedule+10 prev=%ax cpu=%bx
After:
Added new event:
probe:schedule_1 (on schedule+1 with prev cpu)
You can now use it on all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:schedule_1 -a sleep 1
