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
What would it print if the address is corrupted ?
Perhaps we could do like the backtrace code and print e.g.
[<00000000f0d68cda>] perf_trace_sched_wakeup_template+0xNN/0xMM
?
I don't care about the actual layout, but removing the address
from the formatted output appears to be removing useful data
in debug situations.
Thanks,
Mathieu
