Trace a magic number as immediate value if the target variable is not found at some probe points which is based on one probe event. This feature is good for the case if you trace a source code line with some local variables, which is compiled into several instructions and some of the variables are optimized out on some instructions. Even if so, with this feature, perf probe trace a magic number instead of such disappeared variables and fold those probes on one event. E.g. without this patch: # perf probe -D "pud_page_vaddr pud" Failed to find 'pud' in this function. Failed to find 'pud' in this function. Failed to find 'pud' in this function.
