tools/perf: Add '__rel_loc' event field parsing support

2021-12-06T20:37:22+00:00

Add new '__rel_loc' dynamic data location attribute support. This type attribute is similar to the '__data_loc' but records the offset from the field itself. The libtraceevent adds TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE to the 'tep_format_field::flags' with TEP_FIELD_IS_DYNAMIC for'__rel_loc'.

perf tools: Use __BYTE_ORDER__

2021-11-07T15:27:38+00:00

Switch from the libc-defined __BYTE_ORDER to the compiler-defined __BYTE_ORDER__ in order to make endianness detection more robust, like it was done for libbpf.

perf tools: Remove repipe argument from perf_session__new()

2021-08-02T13:06:51+00:00

The repipe argument is only used by perf inject and the all others passes 'false'. Let's remove it from the function signature and add __perf_session__new() to be called from perf inject directly. This is a preparation of the change the pipe input/output.

perf data: Add JSON export

2021-04-29T13:30:58+00:00

This adds a feature to export perf data to JSON. The resolved symbols are exported into the JSON so that external tools don't need to load the dsos themselves (or even have access to them at all.) This makes it easy to load and analyze perf data with standalone tools where direct perf or libbabeltrace integration is impractical. The exporter uses a minimal inline JSON encoding without any external dependencies. Currently it only outputs some headers and sample metadata but it's easily extensible. Use it like this: $ perf data convert --to-json out.json Committer notes: Fixup a __printf() bug that broke the build: util/data-convert-json.c:103:11: error: expected ‘)’ before numeric constant 103 | __(printf, 5, 6) | ^~ | ) util/data-convert-json.c: In function ‘output_sample_callchain_entry’: util/data-convert-json.c:124:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘output_json_key_format’; did you mean ‘output_json_format’?

perf data: Add support to store time of day in CTF data conversion

2020-08-06T12:43:37+00:00

Adad support to convert and store time of day in CTF data conversion for 'perf data convert' subcommand. The perf.data used for conversion needs to have clock data information - must be recorded with -k/--clockid option). New --tod option is added to 'perf data convert' subcommand to convert data with timestamps converted to wall clock time. Record data with clockid set: # perf record -k CLOCK_MONOTONIC kill kill: not enough arguments [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.033 MB perf.data (8 samples) ] Convert data with TOD timestamps: # perf data convert --tod --to-ctf ./ctf [ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf' ] [ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 0.000 MB (8 samples) ] Display data in perf script: # perf script -F+tod --ns perf 262150 2020-07-13 18:38:50.097678523 153633.958246159: 1 cycles: ... perf 262150 2020-07-13 18:38:50.097682941 153633.958250577: 1 cycles: ... perf 262150 2020-07-13 18:38:50.097684997 153633.958252633: 7 cycles: ... ...

perf session: Return error code for perf_session__new() function on failure

2019-09-20T18:58:11+00:00

This patch is to return error code of perf_new_session function on failure instead of NULL. Test Results: Before Fix: $ perf c2c report -input failed to open nput: No such file or directory $ echo $? 0 $ After Fix: $ perf c2c report -input failed to open nput: No such file or directory $ echo $? 254 $ Committer notes: Fix 'perf tests topology' case, where we use that TEST_ASSERT_VAL(..., session), i.e. we need to pass zero in case of failure, which was the case before when NULL was returned by perf_session__new() for failure, but now we need to negate the result of IS_ERR(session) to respect that TEST_ASSERT_VAL) expectation of zero meaning failure.
