perf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce OPT_INCR()

2010-07-05T18:21:54Z

commit c05556421742eb47f80301767653a4bcb19de9de upstream. Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool and would therefore print out the usage information and terminate. This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is currently the only such example of this). I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints. The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN. Signed-off-by: Ian Munsie Acked-by: David S.

perf tools: Unify debug messages mechanisms

2009-10-23T06:22:47Z

We were using eprintf in some places, that looks at a global 'verbose' level, and at other places passing a 'v' parameter to specify the verbosity level, unify it by introducing pr_{err,warning,debug,etc}, just like in the kernel.

perf tools: Protect header files with a consistent style

There was a colorful mix of header guards - standardize them. Signed-off-by: John Kacur LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

perf tools: Librarize trace_event() helper

2009-08-16T21:06:45Z

Librarize trace_event() helper so that perf trace can use it too. Also clean up the debug.h includes a bit. It's not good to have it included in perf.h because it doesn't make it flexible against other headers it may need (headers that can also depend on perf.h and then create a recursive header dependency).

perf tools: Factorize the dprintf definition

2009-08-16T17:42:31Z

We have two users of dprintf: report and annotate. Another one is coming with perf trace. Then factorize it into the debug file. While at it, rename dprintf() to dump_printf() so that it doesn't conflicts with its libc homograph.

perf tools: Factorize high level dso helpers

2009-08-12T10:02:38Z

Factorize multiple definitions of high level dso helpers into the symbol source file. The side effect is a general export of the verbose and eprintf debugging helpers into a new file dedicated to debugging purposes.
