perf probe: Fix add event failure when running 32-bit perf in a 64-bit kernel
The "address" member of "struct probe_trace_point" uses long data type.
If kernel is 64-bit and perf program is 32-bit, size of "address"
variable is 32 bits.
As a result, upper 32 bits of address read from kernel are truncated, an
error occurs during address comparison in kprobe_warn_out_range().
Before:
# perf probe -a schedule
schedule is out of .text, skip it.
Error: Failed to add events.
Solution:
Change data type of "address" variable to u64 and change corresponding
address printing and value assignment.
After:
# perf.new.new probe -a schedule
Added new event:
probe:schedule (on schedule)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:schedule -aR sleep 1
# perf probe -l
probe:schedule (on schedule@kernel/sched/core.c)
# perf record -e probe:schedule -aR sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.156 MB perf.data (1366 samples) ]
# perf report --stdio
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

# Total Lost Samples: 0

# Samples: 1K of event 'probe:schedule'
# Event count (approx.): 1366
