Hi, Here is the series for probing on versioned symbols in libraries. This includes 5 patches to fix the issues discussed on perf-users ML (https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-perf-users/msg04637.html) [1/5] Warn if the event name is invalid. This notices user that there is internal error which caused by unexpected input. [2/5] Cut off the version suffix when making event name from symbol name. This fixes a issue when a wildcard hits versioned symbol. [3/5] Add "__return" suffix to the event name automatically for the return probe, so that user can easily identify which event is on function return. [4/5] Find versioned symbol from map without wildcard. This allows user to specify a symbol without version suffix nor wildcard. Anyway, at this point we have no way to specify version suffix, because parser recognizes "@" is a separator of "function@file" syntax. This is fixed in next patch. [5/5] Allow user to use backslash-escaped characters on command line. This has 2 effects, user can specify version suffix directly, and we can use special characters in source file.
