perf tools: Remove util.h from where it is not needed

2019-09-20T12:19:20+00:00

Check that it is not needed and remove, fixing up some fallout for places where it was only serving to get something else. Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-9h6dg6lsqe2usyqjh5rrues4@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Remove debug.h from places where it is not needed

2019-09-20T12:19:20+00:00

Pruning a bit more the includes dependency tree. Building this thing on lots of containers takes time, we better reduce the time per build, each container is doing 6 builds when clang and clang-devel are available, and the plan is to do a 'make -C tools/perf build-test' that have many more. Also helps when doing normal development, as touching some random file will have a much reduced chance of triggering lots of rebuilds.

perf debug: Remove needless include directives from debug.h

2019-08-31T22:10:19+00:00

All we need there is a forward declaration for 'union perf_event', so remove it from there and add missing header directives in places using things from this indirect include.

perf tools: Add missing headers, mostly stdlib.h

2019-07-09T13:13:22+00:00

Part of the erosion of util/util.h, that will lose its include stdlib.h, we need to add it to places where it is needed but was getting it indirectly.

treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 433

2019-06-05T15:37:16+00:00

Based on 1 normalized pattern(s): released under the gpl v2 extracted by the scancode license scanner the SPDX license identifier GPL-2.0-only has been chosen to replace the boilerplate/reference in 2 file(s).

perf target: str_error_r() always returns the buffer it receives

2016-07-29T14:54:35+00:00

So no need for checking if it uses the strerror_r() GNU variant error reporting mechanism, i.e. if it returns a pointer to a immutable string internal to glibc.

perf tools: Remove needless includes from cache.h

2016-07-12T18:19:58+00:00

The cache.h header doesn't use any of the definitions in some of the headers it includes, ditch them and fix the fallout, where files were getting stuff they needed just because they were including it, sometimes not using what it really exports at all.

tools: Introduce str_error_r()

2016-07-12T18:19:47+00:00

The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else. But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine Linux, where musl libc is used. So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is returned.

perf target: Simplify handling of strerror_r return

2015-03-24T15:08:30+00:00

To deal with forwarding the strerror_r (GNU) return we need to check if the returned value is the buffer we passed or maybe some constant (unknown error), simplify that action by using scnprintf, that will do all the buflen size checks, trimming if needed.

perf record: Make per-cpu mmaps the default.

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

This affects the -p, -t and -u options that previously defaulted to per-thread mmaps. Consequently add an option to select per-thread mmaps to support the old behaviour. Note that per-thread can be used with a workload-only (i.e. none of -p, -t, -u, -a or -C is selected) to get a per-thread mmap with no inheritance.
