+
+. 'cache' or 'hwcache' to list hardware cache events such as L1-dcache-loads, etc.

+. If none of the above is matched, it will apply the supplied glob to all

- "FUNC[:RLN[+NUM|-RLN2]]|SRC[:ALN[+NUM|-ALN2]]"
+ "FUNC[@SRC][:RLN[+NUM|-RLN2]]|SRC[:ALN[+NUM|-ALN2]]"
 
 FUNC specifies the function name of showing lines. 'RLN' is the start line
 number from function entry line, and 'RLN2' is the end line number. As same as
 probe syntax, 'SRC' means the source file path, 'ALN' is start line number,
 and 'ALN2' is end line number in the file. It is also possible to specify how
-many lines to show by using 'NUM'.
+many lines to show by using 'NUM'. Moreover, 'FUNC@SRC' combination is good
+for searching a specific function when several functions share same name.
 So, "source.c:100-120" shows lines between 100th to l20th in source.c file. And "func:10+20" shows 20 lines from 10th line of func function.
 
 LAZY MATCHING
@@ -135,6 +147,14 @@ e.g.
 
 This provides some sort of flexibility and robustness to probe point definitions against minor code changes. For example, actual 10th line of schedule() can be moved easily by modifying schedule(), but the same line matching 'rq=cpu_rq*' may still exist in the function.)
 
+FILTER PATTERN
+--------------
+ The filter pattern is a glob matching pattern(s) to filter variables.
+ In addition, you can use "!" for specifying filter-out rule. You also can give several rules combined with "&" or "|", and fold those rules as one rule by using "(" ")".
+
+e.g.
+ With --filter "foo* | bar*", perf probe -V shows variables which start with "foo" or "bar".
+ With --filter "!foo* & *bar", perf probe -V shows variables which don't start with "foo" and end with "bar", like "fizzbar". But "foobar" is filtered out.
