perf subcmd: Create subcmd library

2015-12-17T17:27:14Z

Move the subcommand-related files from perf to a new library named libsubcmd.a. Since we're moving files anyway, go ahead and rename 'exec_cmd.*' to 'exec-cmd.*' to be consistent with the naming of all the other files.

perf tools: Make options always available, even if required libs not linked

2015-12-14T15:57:32Z

This patch keeps options of perf builtins same in all conditions. If one option is disabled because of compiling options, users should be notified. Masami suggested another implementation in [1] that, by adding a OPTION_NEXT_DEPENDS option before those options in the 'struct option' array, options parser knows an option is disabled. However, in some cases this array is reordered (options__order()). In addition, in parse-option.c that array is const, so we can't simply merge information in decorator option into the affacted option. This patch chooses a simpler implementation that, introducing a set_option_nobuild() function and two option parsing flags. Builtins with such options should call set_option_nobuild() before option parsing. The complexity of this patch is because we want some of options can be skipped safely. In this case their arguments should also be consumed. Options in 'perf record' and 'perf probe' are fixed in this patch.

perf tools: Introduce usage_with_options_msg()

2015-10-27T12:28:44Z

Now usage_with_options() setup a pager before printing message so normal printf() or pr_err() will not be shown. The usage_with_options_msg() can be used to print some help message before usage strings.

perf probe: Allow probing on kmodules without dwarf

2015-10-02T18:59:23Z

Allow probing on kernel modules when 'perf' is built without debuginfo support. Currently perf-probe --module requires linking with libdw, but this doesn't make sense. E.g. ---- # make NO_DWARF=1 # ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return Error: unknown switch `m' ---- With this patch ---- # ./perf probe -m pcspkr pcspkr_event%return Added new event: probe:pcspkr_event (on pcspkr_event%return in pcspkr) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:pcspkr_event -aR sleep 1 ---- Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151002125832.18617.78721.stgit@localhost.localdomain Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf probe: Fix a segfault when removing uprobe events

2015-09-21T21:01:17Z

Fix a segfault bug and a small mistake in perf probe -d. Since the "ulist" in perf_del_probe_events is never initialized, strlist__add(ulist, *) always causes a segfault when removing uprobe events by perf probe -d. Also, the "str" local variable is never released if fail to allocate the "klist". This fixes it too. This has been introduced by the commit e607f1426b58 ("perf probe: Print deleted events in cmd_probe()").

perf probe: Export init/exit_probe_symbol_maps()

2015-09-15T12:48:32Z

The init/exit_symbols_maps() functions are to setup and cleanup necessary info for probe events. But they need to be called from out of the probe code now, so this patch exports them. However the names are too generic, so change them to have 'probe'. :) Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1441852026-28974-2-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf probe: Print deleted events in cmd_probe()

2015-09-04T15:43:44Z

Showing actual trace event when deleteing perf events is only needed in perf probe command. But the add functionality itself can be used by other places. So move the printing code into the cmd_probe(). The output is not changed.

perf probe: Move print logic into cmd_probe()

2015-09-04T15:37:17Z

Showing actual trace event when adding perf events is only needed in perf probe command. But the add functionality itself can be used by other places. So move the printing code into the cmd_probe(). Also it combines the output if more than one event is added.

perf probe: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "strfilter__delete"

2015-07-06T11:58:36Z

The strfilter__delete() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
