perf tools: fix missing winsize definition

2012-09-08T01:07:32Z

In Android, struct winsize is not defined in the headers already included in help.c. This leads to a compile error. Including termios.h fixes the compilation error since it defines struct winsize.

perf top: Convert to struct perf_target

2012-05-02T18:20:30Z

Use struct perf_target as it is introduced by previous patch. This is a preparation of further changes.

perf tools: Invert the sample_id_all logic

2012-02-14T16:18:57Z

Instead of requiring that users of perf_record_opts set .sample_id_all_avail to true, just invert the logic, using .sample_id_all_missing, that doesn't need to be explicitely initialized since gcc will zero members ommitted in a struct initialization. Just like the newly introduced .exclude_{guest,host} feature test.

perf tools: Handle kernels that don't support attr.exclude_{guest,host}

2012-02-14T16:05:30Z

Just fall back to resetting those fields, if set, warning the user that that feature is not available. If guest samples appear they will just be discarded because no struct machine will be found and thus the event will be accounted as not handled and dropped, see 0c09571.

perf tools: Allow multiple threads or processes in record, stat, top

2012-02-14T00:54:11Z

Allow a user to collect events for multiple threads or processes using a comma separated list. e.g., collect data on a VM and its vhost thread: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 or monitoring vcpu threads perf top -t 21488,21489 perf stat -t 21488,21489 -ddd perf record -t 21488,21489 Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Thomas Gleixner Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1328718772-16688-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com Signed-off-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Introduce per user view

2012-01-24T21:47:37Z

The new --uid command line option will show only the tasks for a given user, using the proc interface to figure out the existing tasks. Kernel work is needed to close races at startup, but this should already be useful in many use cases.

perf top: Stop using globals for tool state

2011-11-28T12:39:44Z

Use its 'perf_tool' base class instead. Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-i33q40wwvk2zna8fd36ex6sm@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Rename perf_event_ops to perf_tool

2011-11-28T12:39:28Z

To better reflect that it became the base class for all tools, that must be in each tool struct and where common stuff will be put.

perf tools: Pass tool context in the the perf_event_ops functions

2011-11-28T12:38:56Z

So that we don't need to have that many globals. Next steps will remove the 'session' pointer, that in most cases is not needed. Then we can rename perf_event_ops to 'perf_tool' that better describes this class hierarchy.

perf hists browser: Warn about lost events

2011-11-02T14:27:23Z

Just like the old perf top --tui and the --stdio version. But because we have the initial menu to choose which event to show in a session with multiple events we can see how many chunks were lost in each of the event types, clarifying which events are being affected the most.
