commit 4624f199327a704dd1069aca1c3cadb8f2a28c6f upstream.
Because of commit bf794bf52a80c627 ("powerpc/kprobes: Fix kallsyms lookup across powerpc ABIv1 and ABIv2"), in ppc64 ABIv1, our perf command eliminates the need to use the prefix "." at the symbol name.
But when the command "perf probe -a schedule" is executed on ppc64 ABIv1, it obtains two symbol address information through /proc/kallsyms, for example:
cat /proc/kallsyms | grep -w schedule c000000000657020 T .schedule c000000000d4fdb8 D schedule
The symbol "D schedule" is not a function symbol, and perf will print: "p:probe/schedule _text+13958584"Failed to write event: Invalid argument
Therefore, when searching symbols from map and adding probe point for them, a symbol type check is added. If the type of symbol is not a function, skip it.
