Sorry, Nak this. I hope to see better uniformed interface for both of uprobe and kprobe, even after we support debuginfo for uprobe.
I mean, if uprobe always requires a user-space binary, it should be specified with -u option instead of --exe and @EXE.
I think this simplifies perf probe usage, it implies;
# perf probe [-k KERN] [...] // Control probes in kernel # perf probe -m MOD [...] // Control probes in MOD module # perf probe -u EXE [...] // Control probes on EXE file Thank you,
