perf probe: Ignore the error of finding inline instance
Ignore the error when the perf probe failed to find inline function
instances. This can happen when we search a method in C++ debuginfo. If
there is completely no instance in target, perf probe can return an
error.
E.g. without this fix:
----
$ perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 -vD showmanyc
probe-definition(0): showmanyc
symbol:showmanyc file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
0 arguments
symbol:catch file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
symbol:throw file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
symbol:rethrow file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
Open Debuginfo file: /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22.debug
Try to find probe point from debuginfo.
Matched function: showmanyc
An error occurred in debuginfo analysis (-2).
Trying to use symbols.
Failed to find symbol showmanyc in /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22
Error: Failed to add events. Reason: No such file or directory (Code: -2)
----
This is because one of showmanyc is defined as inline but no instance
found. With this fix, it is succeeded to show as below.
----
$ perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 -D showmanyc
p:probe_libstdc++/showmanyc /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.22:0xb0e50
