Masami Hiramatsu 6430a94ead perf buildid-cache: Scan and import user SDT events to probe cache
perf buildid-cache --add <binary> scans given binary and add
the SDT events to probe cache. "sdt_" prefix is appended for
all SDT providers to avoid event-name clash with other pre-defined
events. It is possible to use the cached SDT events as other cached
events, via perf probe --add "sdt_<provider>:<event>=<event>".

e.g.
  ----
  # perf buildid-cache --add /lib/libc-2.17.so
  # perf probe --cache --list | head -n 5
  /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so (a6fb821bdf53660eb2c29f778757aef294d3d392):
  sdt_libc:setjmp=setjmp
  sdt_libc:longjmp=longjmp
  sdt_libc:longjmp_target=longjmp_target
  sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
  # perf probe -x /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so \
    -a sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
  Added new event:
    sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on memory_heap_new
   in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e sdt_libc:memory_heap_new -aR sleep 1

  # perf probe -l
    sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on new_heap+183 in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)
  ----

Note that SDT event entries in probe-cache file is somewhat different
from normal cached events. Normal one starts with "#", but SDTs are
starting with "%".
