perf probe: Skip overlapped location on searching variables
Since debuginfo__find_probes() callback function can be called with the location which already passed, the callback function must filter out such overlapped locations. add_probe_trace_event() has already done it by commit 1a375ae7659a ("perf probe: Skip same probe address for a given line"), but add_available_vars() doesn't. Thus perf probe -v shows same address repeatedly as below: # perf probe -V vfs_read:18 Available variables at vfs_read:18 @<vfs_read+217> char* buf loff_t* pos ssize_t ret struct file* file @<vfs_read+217> char* buf loff_t* pos ssize_t ret struct file* file @<vfs_read+226> char* buf loff_t* pos ssize_t ret struct file* file With this fix, perf probe -V shows it correctly: # perf probe -V vfs_read:18 Available variables at vfs_read:18 @<vfs_read+217> char* buf loff_t* pos ssize_t ret struct file* file @<vfs_read+226> char* buf loff_t* pos ssize_t ret struct file* file Fixes: cf6eb489e5c0 ("perf probe: Show accessible local variables") Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/157241938927.32002.4026859017790562751.stgit@devnote2 Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
