perf tools: Split out PE_VALUE_SYM parsing token to SW and HW tokens

2012-07-05T14:29:56Z

Spliting PE_VALUE_SYM token to PE_VALUE_SYM_HW and PE_VALUE_SYM_SW tokens to separate hardware and software symbols. This will be useful in upcomming patch where we want to be able to parse out only hardware events.

perf/tool: Add support to reuse event grammar to parse out terms

2012-06-18T10:13:25Z

We want to reuse the event grammar for parsing aliased terms. The obvious reason is we dont need to add new code when there's already support for this in event grammar. Doing this by adding terms and event start entries into event parse grammar. The grammar forks on the begining based on the starting token, which is supplied via bison interface into the lexer. The lexer then returns the starting token as the first token, thus making the grammar switch accordingly. Currently 2 starting tokens/grammars are supported: PE_START_TERMS, PE_START_EVENTS The PE_START_TERMS related grammar uses 'event_config' part of the grammar for term parsing.

perf/tool: Make the event parser re-entrant

2012-06-18T10:13:24Z

Make the event parser reentrant by creating separate scanner for each parsing. The scanner is passed to the bison as and argument to the lexer.

perf/tool: Use data struct for arg passing in event parse function

2012-06-18T10:13:24Z

Moving all the bison arguments into the structure. In upcomming patches we are going to: - add more arguments - reuse the grammer for term parsing so it's more clear to pack/separate related arguments.

perf tools: Add hardcoded name term for pmu events

2012-05-22T14:47:54Z

Adding a new hardcoded term 'name' allowing to specify a name for the pmu event. The term is defined along with standard pmu terms. If no 'name' term is given, the event name follows following template: "raw 0x" running: perf stat -e cpu/config=1,name=krava1/u ls will produce following output: ... Performance counter stats for 'ls': 0 krava1 ... running: perf stat -e cpu/config=1/u ls will produce following output: ... Performance counter stats for 'ls': 0 raw 0x1 ...

perf tools: Use allocated list for each parsed event

2012-05-22T14:22:28Z

Switch from using static temporary event list into dynamically allocated one. This way we dont need to pass temp list to the parse_events_parse which makes the interface more clear.

perf tools: Split term type into value type and term type

2012-05-18T15:15:32Z

Introducing type_val and type_term for term instead of a single type value. Currently the term type marked out the value type as well. With this change we can have future string term values being specified by user and translated into proper number along the processing.

perf tools: Fix modifier to be applied on correct events

2012-03-22T18:11:38Z

The event modifier needs to be applied only on the event definition it is attached to. The current state is that in case of multiple events definition (in single '-e' option, separated by ',') all will get modifier of the last one. Fixing this by adding separated list for each event definition, so the modifier is applied only to proper event(s). Added automated test to catch this, plus some other modifier tests.

perf tools: Add support to specify pmu style event

2012-03-16T17:30:13Z

Added new event rule to the event definition grammar: event_def: event_pmu | ... event_pmu: PE_NAME '/' event_config '/' Using this rule, event could be now specified like: cpu/config=1,config1=2,config2=3/u where pmu name 'cpu' is looked up via following path: ${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu} and config options are bound to the pmu's format definiton: ${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu}/format The hardcoded config options still stays and have precedence over any format field defined with same name.

perf tools: Add config options support for event parsing

2012-03-16T17:26:06Z

Adding a new rule to the event grammar to be able to specify values of additional attributes of symbolic event. The new syntax for event symbolic definition is: event_legacy_symbol: PE_NAME_SYM '/' event_config '/' | PE_NAME_SYM sep_slash_dc event_config: event_config ',' event_term | event_term event_term: PE_NAME '=' PE_NAME | PE_NAME '=' PE_VALUE PE_NAME sep_slash_dc: '/' | ':' | At the moment the config options are hardcoded to be used for legacy symbol events to define several perf_event_attr fields. It is: 'config' to define perf_event_attr::config 'config1' to define perf_event_attr::config1 'config2' to define perf_event_attr::config2 'period' to define perf_event_attr::sample_period Legacy events could be now specified as: cycles/period=100000/ If term is specified without the value assignment, then 1 is assigned by default.
