perf kvm: introduce --list-cmds for use by scripts

2014-03-14T21:08:41+00:00

Introduce $ perf kvm --list-cmds to dump a raw list of commands for use by the completion script. In order to do this, introduce parse_options_subcommand() for handling subcommands as a special case in the parse-options machinery.

perf tools: Add option macro OPT_BOOLEAN_SET

2013-11-27T17:58:36+00:00

OPT_BOOLEAN_SET records whether a boolean option was set by the user. That information can be used to change the default value for the option after the options have been parsed.

perf tools: Show single option when failed to parse

2013-11-04T15:51:45+00:00

Current option parser outputs whole option help string when it failed to parse an option. However this is not good for user if the command has many option, she might feel hard which one is related easily. Fix it by just showing the help message of the given option only.

perf options: add OPT_CALLBACK_DEFAULT_NOOPT

2010-12-06T17:33:29+00:00

Add new macro OPT_CALLBACK_DEFAULT_NOOPT for parse_options. It enables to pass the default value (opt->defval) to the callback function processing options require no argument.

perf options: Type check all the remaining OPT_ variants

2010-05-17T19:22:41+00:00

OPT_SET_INT was renamed to OPT_SET_UINT since the only use in these tools is to set something that has an enum type, that is builtin compatible with unsigned int. Several string constifications were done to make OPT_STRING require a const char * type.

perf options: Check v type in OPT_U?INTEGER

2010-05-17T18:43:38+00:00

To avoid problems like the one fixed by Stephane Eranian in 3de29ca, now we'll got this instead: bench/sched-messaging.c:259: error: negative width in bit-field ‘’ bench/sched-messaging.c:261: error: negative width in bit-field ‘’ Which is rather cryptic, but is how BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO works, so kernel hackers should be already used to this. With it in place found some problems, fixed by changing the affected variables to sensible types or changed some OPT_INTEGER to OPT_UINTEGER. Next csets will go thru converting each of the remaining OPT_ so that review can be made easier by grouping changes per type per patch.

We have things like user_interval (-c/--count) in 'perf record' that needs this. Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Cc: Tom Zanussi LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
