perf probe: Warn unmatched function filter correctly
Warn unmatched function filter correctly instead of warning
"symbol-loading error", since that can be a filter issue.
From the technical point of view, this adds a filter chech in map__load
and if there is a filter, it returns -2 (filter-out), instead of -1
(error), and perf-probe checks it and change message.
E.g. without this fix:
# perf probe -F rt_sp*
no symbols found in [kernel.kallsyms], maybe install a debug package?
Failed to load symbols in kernel
With this fix:
# perf probe -F rt_sp*
no symbols passed the given filter.
Failed to find symbols matched to "rt_sp*"
Error: Failed to show functions.
