perf llvm: Use realpath to canonicalize paths

2016-03-23T20:39:19+00:00

To kill the last user of make_nonrelative_path(), that gets ditched, one more panicking function killed. Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-3hu56rvyh4q5gxogovb6ko8a@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf config: Add '--system' and '--user' options to select which config file is used

2016-02-12T13:54:46+00:00

The '--system' option means $(sysconfdir)/perfconfig and '--user' means $HOME/.perfconfig. If none is used, both system and user config file are read. E.g.: # perf config [] [options] With an specific config file: # perf config --user | --system or both user and system config file: # perf config Signed-off-by: Taeung Song Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1455126685-32367-2-git-send-email-treeze.taeung@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf subcmd: Create subcmd library

2015-12-17T17:27:14+00:00

Move the subcommand-related files from perf to a new library named libsubcmd.a. Since we're moving files anyway, go ahead and rename 'exec_cmd.*' to 'exec-cmd.*' to be consistent with the naming of all the other files.

perf tools: Provide subcmd configuration at runtime

2015-12-16T19:18:16+00:00

Create init functions for exec_cmd.c and pager.c. This allows their configuration to be specified at runtime so they can be split out into a separate library which can be used by other programs. Their configuration is stored in a shared subcmd_config struct.

perf tools: Move strlcpy() from perf to tools/lib/string.c

2015-12-16T19:09:39+00:00

strlcpy() will be needed by the subcmd library. Move it to the shared tools/lib/string.c file which can be used by other tools.

perf report: Fix some option handling on --stdio

2015-05-14T13:05:22+00:00

There's a bug that perf report sometimes ignore some options on --stdio output. This bug is triggered only if a related config variable is set. For example, let's assume we have a following config file. $ cat ~/.perfconfig [call-graph] print-type = graph [hist] percentage = absolute Then, following perf config will not honor some options. $ perf record -ag sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.199 MB perf.data (77 samples) ] $ perf report -g none --stdio # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # Samples: 77 of event 'cycles' # Event count (approx.): 25425383 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ............... ....................... .............. # 16.34% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] intel_idle | ---intel_idle cpuidle_enter_state cpuidle_enter cpu_startup_entry ... With '-g none' option, it should not show callchains, but it still shows callchains. However it works as expected on --tui output. Similarly, '--percentage relative' option is not work and still shows a absolute percentage values. Looking at the source, I found that those setting were overwritten by config variables when setup_pager() called. The setup_pager() is to start a pager process so that it can manage long lines of output on the stdio mode. But as it calls the perf_config() after parsing arguments, the settings were overwritten regardless of command line options. The reason it calls perf_config() is to find the 'pager_program' which might be set by a config variable, I guess. However current perf code does not provide the config variable for it, so it's just meaningless IMHO. Eliminating the call makes the option working as expected.
