Add $ prefix to the special variables(e.g. sa, rv) of kprobe-tracer. This resolves consistency issues between kprobe_events and perf-kprobe. The main goal is to avoid conflicts between local variable names of probed functions, used by perf probe, and special variables used in the kprobe event creation interface (stack values, etc...) and also available from perf probe. ie: we don't want rv (return value) to conflict with a local variable named rv in a probed function.

Disable newly created kprobe events by default, not to disturb another user using ftrace. "Disturb" means when someone is using ftrace and another user tries to use perf-tools, (in near future) if he defines new kprobe event via perf-tools, then new events will mess up the frace buffer. Fix this to allow proper and transparent kprobes events concurrent usage between ftrace users and perf users. Signed-off-by:

Support specifying a custom subsystem(group) for each kprobe event. This allows users to create new group to control several probes at once, or add events to existing groups as additional tracepoints. New synopsis: p[:[subsys/]event-name] KADDR|KSYM[+offs] [ARGS] Signed-off-by:

Show event name in tracing/trace output. This also fixes kprobes events format to comply with other tracepoint events formats.

Add argument name assignment support and remove "alias" lines from format. This allows user to assign unique name to each argument. For example, $ echo p do_sys_open dfd=a0 filename=a1 flags=a2 mode=a3 > kprobe_events This assigns dfd, filename, flags, and mode to 1st - 4th arguments respectively. Trace buffer shows those names too. <...>-1439 [000] 1200885.933147: do_sys_open+0x0/0xdf: dfd=ffffff9c filename=bfa898ac flags=8000 mode=0 This helps users to know what each value means. Users can filter each events by these names too. Note that you can not filter by argN anymore. Signed-off-by:
