Hi Masami,

vfs_read+8 is function entry on powerpc. So, the test case bails out at:
   "check_error 'p vfs_read+8 ^$arg*'		# NOFENTRY_ARGS"

as it allows setting kprobe "vfs_read+8 $arg*"

End of the log file for reference:

"
Test command: p vfs_read $arg* $arg*
[2661828.483436] trace_kprobe: error: $arg* can be used only once in the 
parameters
   Command: p vfs_read $arg* $arg*
                             ^
Test command: p vfs_read+8 $arg*
"

Thanks
Hari
