hi guys, im trying to probe a static function in the slub allocator ("stat"). however, when doing ```probe kernel.function("stat@mm/slub.c")''' i get: semantic error: no match (similar functions: bstat, stat, c_start, csi_at, eat). but it shows stat in the list

<fche>
DUKENUKEM, try without the mm/slub.c
<DUKENUKEM>
fche: i have, same result
<fche>
hm, am seeing that here too
<fche>
I see a static inline void stat(const struct kmem_cache *s, enum stat_item si)
<fche>
in mm/slub.c, nearly empty
<DUKENUKEM>
ah its inline
<fche>
that's not normally a problem
<DUKENUKEM>
yeah im mostly wanting to trace the stat_item
<DUKENUKEM>
i just want to see the calls with the si arg
<DUKENUKEM>
because they are good markers within the allocator
<DUKENUKEM>
is there something different i have to do for inline functions? I always get an error when trying an inline
<fche>
depends on the function
<fche>
-> depends on how much information gcc leaves behind about the function
<fche>
stap -L 'kernel.function("*wildcard*").*' can tell you whether it finds inlined / non-inlined / etc. variants of a given function pattern
