perf tools: Add missing files to build the python binding

2012-08-21T13:31:40+00:00

Changeset 0f6a3015: "perf tools: Support user regs and stack in sample parsing" uses hweight_long in evsel.c, so we need to drag util/hweight.c to the python binding. Ditto for ee8dd3c: "perf tools: Change strlist to use the new rblist" where we need to add util/rblist.c. Now twatch.py works again: # export PYTHONPATH=~acme/git/build/perf/python/ # ~acme/git/linux/tools/perf/python/twatch.py cpu: 4, pid: 23639, tid: 23639 { type: fork, pid: 30659, ppid: 23639, tid: 30659, ptid: 23639, time: 36287872076780} cpu: 5, pid: 30659, tid: 30659 { type: comm, pid: 30659, tid: 30659, comm: ls } cpu: 5, pid: 30659, tid: 30659 { type: exit, pid: 30659, ppid: 30659, tid: 30659, ptid: 30659, time: 36287873681539} cpu: 4, pid: 23639, tid: 23639 { type: fork, pid: 30660, ppid: 23639, tid: 30660, ptid: 23639, time: 36291720420480} cpu: 5, pid: 30659, tid: 30659 { type: exit, pid: 30659, ppid: 30659, tid: 30659, ptid: 30659, time: 36287873685714} cpu: 5, pid: 30660, tid: 30660 { type: comm, pid: 30660, tid: 30660, comm: git } ^C KeyboardInterrupt Reported-by: Jérôme Carretero Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-gmq82zp5blin9aml9g5tzokr@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Introduce intlist

2012-08-03T13:42:25+00:00

Built on rblist - like strlist. Used in the next patch. Signed-off-by: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1343709095-7089-4-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Change strlist to use the new rblist

2012-08-03T13:39:51+00:00

Replaces the direct use of rbtree code with the rblist API. In the end the patch is a no-op on strlist functionality; the API for strlist is not changed, only its implementaton.

perf tools: Introducing rblist

2012-08-03T13:37:21+00:00

rblist is the rbtree based code from strlist. It will be the common code for strlist and the to-be-introduced intlist.

perf kvm: Use strtol for walking guestmount directory

2012-08-03T13:35:23+00:00

Only want to process directories under the guestmnount directory that have a pid as a name (ie, all digits). Other entries in the guestmount directory should be ignored. There is already a check that requires the first character of each entry to be a digit, but atoi is used to convert the directory name to a pid. For example if guestmount contains a directory with the name 1foo, atoi converts it to a pid of 1 and a machine is created with a pid of 1. This is wrong; this directory really should be ignored. Use strtol to do that.

perf tool: Save cmdline from user in file header vs what is passed to record

2012-08-03T13:33:50+00:00

A number of builtin commands process some user args and then pass the rest to cmd_record. cmd_record then saves argc/argv that it receives into the header of the perf data file. But this loses the arguments handled by the first command -- ie., the real command line from the user. This patch saves the command line as typed by the user rather than what was passed to cmd_record. As an example consider the command: $ perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount record -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 10 Currently the command saved to the header is: cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf record -o perf.data.kvm -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1 (ignore the duplicated -o -- the first would be yet another bug with perf-kvm). With this patch the command line saved to the header is: cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount record -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1 v2: simplified to saving the command in parse_options per Stephane's suggestion Signed-off-by: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1343616831-6408-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf evsel: Adopt parse_sample method from perf_event

2012-08-02T15:23:46+00:00

Since we need evsel->{attr.{sample_{id_all,type}},sample_size}, reducing the number of parameters tools have to pass.

perf evlist: Introduce perf_evlist__parse_sample

2012-08-02T14:42:57+00:00

That is a more compact form of perf_session__parse_sample and to support multiple evlists per perf_session is the way to go anyway.

perf session: Use perf_evlist__id_hdr_size more extensively

Removing perf_session->id_hdr_size, as it can be obtained from the evsel/evlist.
