Lemme try...
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state_225=malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5
The /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so file has no debug information.
Rebuild with -g, or install an appropriate debuginfo package.
Error: Failed to add events.
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5
The /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so file has no debug information.
Rebuild with -g, or install an appropriate debuginfo package.
Error: Failed to add events.
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc
Added new event:
probe_libc:malloc (on malloc in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1
[root@jouet ~]#
So here the message is misleading, as we did manage to put a probe on
'malloc', but not on the versioned symbol, both when trying to give it a
different name (malloc_get_state_225) and when doing it directly
(malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5).

I think it is a matter of replacing special characters with some other.
I think we should support versioned symbols, i.e. one may well want to
intercept calls to a specific version of a symbol.

Probably this was because the same name was used for both entry and
exit, see below on automatically adding __return to %return probes.

I think so, as it is a common operation to ask for entry+exit.
