perf parse events: Demystify memory allocations

2013-07-12T16:52:05Z

List heads are currently allocated way down the function chain in __add_event and add_tracepoint and then freed when the scanner code calls parse_events_update_lists. Be more explicit with where memory is allocated and who should free it. With this patch the list_head is allocated in the scanner code and freed when the scanner code calls parse_events_update_lists.

perf util: Use evsel->name to get tracepoint_paths

2013-07-12T16:46:02Z

Most tracepoint events already have their system and event name in ->name field so that searching whole event tracing directory for each evsel to match given id is suboptimal. Factor out this routine into tracepoint_name_to_path(). In case of en invalid name, it'll try to find path using id again.

perf tools: Keep group information

2013-01-31T16:07:43Z

Add a few of group-related field in struct perf_{evlist,evsel} so that the group information in a evlist can be known easily. It only counts groups which have more than 1 members since leader-only groups are treated as non-group events.

perf tools: Fix usage of __ in event parsing struct names

2013-01-24T19:40:51Z

In tools/perf we use a convention where __ separates the struct name from the function name for functions that operate on a struct instance. Fix this usage by removing it from the struct names and fix also the associated functions.

perf tools: Remove unused 'unset' parameter from parse_events

2013-01-24T19:40:40Z

The 'unset' parameter is option callback leftover with no use, removing.

perf: Make perf build for x86 with UAPI disintegration applied

2012-11-19T22:21:03Z

Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order - and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel headerfiles to use and instead. Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include. This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct. Ideally, we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI - at least not for x86. I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards *should* be transferred there. I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile. Can this be changed to use -MD? Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that perf can access the bits. We have to do this in the same patch to maintain bisectability. Signed-off-by: David Howells

perf tools: Add support to specify hw event as PMU event term

2012-10-24T08:41:27Z

Add a way to specify hw event as PMU event term like: 'cpu/event=cpu-cycles/u' 'cpu/event=instructions,.../u' 'cpu/cycles,.../u' The 'event=cpu-cycles' term is replaced/translated by the hw events term translation, which is exposed by sysfs 'events' group attribute. Add parser bits, the rest is already handled by the PMU alias code.
