Hmm, I found strfilter__string(NULL) (which will happen if
del_perf_probe_events(NULL) invoked) causes SEGV. It should be safe
for NULL instead of checking here.

This might be sdt_name_is_glob().

Would you mean strisglob()@util.h ? :)

Would we really need these two? Since strglobmatch() accepts a string
without wildcard, you don't need strcmp() version...

Could you show what event will be recorded instead of just showing
the number of events?

Hmm, IMHO, you'd better call get_sdt_events_from_cache() first, and
check the existence of those events afterwards. Then you may not
need the "shift" function.

Thank you,
