perf script: Fix format regression due to libtraceevent merge

2012-07-02T14:08:11+00:00

Consider the commands: perf record -e sched:sched_switch -fo /tmp/perf.data -a -- sleep 1 perf script -i /tmp/perf.data In v3.4 the output has the form (lines wrapped here) perf 29214 [005] 821043.582596: sched_switch: prev_comm=perf prev_pid=29214 prev_prio=120 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/5 next_pid=0 next_prio=120 In 3.5 that same line has become: perf 29214 [005] 821043.582596: sched_switch: <...>-29214 [005] 0.000000000: sched_switch: prev_comm=perf prev_pid=29214 prev_prio=120 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/5 next_pid=0 next_prio=120 Note the duplicates in the output -- pid, cpu, event name. With this patch the v3.4 output is restored: perf 29214 [005] 821043.582596: sched_switch: prev_comm=perf prev_pid=29214 prev_prio=120 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/5 next_pid=0 next_prio=120 v3: Remove that pesky newline too. Output now matches v3.4 (pre-libtracevent). v2: Change print_trace_event function local to perf per Steve's comments.

perf tools: Stop using a global trace events description list

2012-06-27T16:08:42+00:00

The pevent thing is per perf.data file, so I made it stop being static and become a perf_session member, so tools processing perf.data files use perf_session and _there_ we read the trace events description into session->pevent and then change everywhere to stop using that single global pevent variable and use the per session one. Note that it _doesn't_ fall backs to trace__event_id, as we're not interested at all in what is present in the /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events in the workstation doing the analysis, just in what is in the perf.data file. This patch also introduces perf_session__set_tracepoints_handlers that is the perf perf.data/session way to associate handlers to tracepoint events by resolving their IDs using the events descriptions stored in a perf.data file. Make 'perf sched' use it.

parse-events: Rename struct record to struct pevent_record

2012-04-25T11:35:48+00:00

As libtraceevent will be a library, having struct record is far too generic of a name to use. Renaming it to be consistent with the rest of the functions will be a better long term solution.

perf/events: Add flag to produce nsec output

2012-04-25T11:35:18+00:00

libtraceevent library prints out in usecs but perf wants to print out in nsecs. Add a flag that lets the user decide to print out in usec or nsec times.

perf: Have perf use the new libtraceevent.a library

2012-04-25T11:28:48+00:00

The event parsing code in perf was originally copied from trace-cmd but never was kept up-to-date with the changes that was done there. The trace-cmd libtraceevent.a code is much more mature than what is currently in perf. This updates the code to use wrappers to handle the calls to the new event parsing code. The new code requires a handle to be pass around, which removes the global event variables and allows more than one event structure to be read from different files (and different machines). But perf still has the old global events and the code throughout perf does not yet have a nice way to pass around a handle. A global 'pevent' has been made for perf and the old calls have been created as wrappers to the new event parsing code that uses the global pevent. With this change, perf can later incorporate the pevent handle into the perf structures and allow more than one file to be read and compared, that contains different events.

perf: Separate out trace-cmd parse-events from perf files

2012-04-25T10:28:18+00:00

Move the trace-event-parse.c code that originally came from trace-cmd into their own files. The new file will be called trace-parse-events.c, as the name of trace-cmd's file was parse-events.c too, but it conflicted with the parse-events.c file in perf that parses the command line. This tries to update the code with mimimal changes. Perf specific code stays in the trace-event-parse.[ch] files and the common parsing code is now in trace-parse-events.c and trace-parse-events.h.

perf tools: Allow expressions in __print_symbolic() fields

2012-02-17T18:34:08+00:00

The __print_symbolic() function takes a sequence of key-value pairs for pretty-printing a constant. The new kvm:kvm_exit print fmt uses the expression: __print_symbolic(..., { 0x040 + 1, "DB excp" }, ...) Currently only atoms are supported and this print fmt fails to parse. This patch adds support for expressions instead of just atoms so that 0x040 + 1 is parsed successfully. Also add arg_num_eval() support for the '+' operator.

perf tools: Remove unnecessary ctype.h inclusion

2012-01-30T20:37:35+00:00

There are unnecessary #include out there, and they might cause a nasty build failure in some environment. As we already have most of ctype macros in util.h, just get rid of them. A few of exceptions are util/symbol.c which needs isupper() macro util.h doesn't provide and perl scripting support code which includes ctype.h internally.
