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.

perf ui browser: Handle K_RESIZE in dialog windows

2011-10-26T15:15:07Z

Just provide wrappers for things like ui__warning, ui__dialog_yesno and if they return K_RESIZE, refresh dimensions, redraw the entries, etc. 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-3ih7hyk9weryxaxb501sfq4u@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf ui: Reimplement ui__popup_menu using ui__browser

2011-10-26T15:06:23Z

Right now let it work just like the other browsers: in full screen, at the top left corner. If people complain we can revisit, I found it OK and the laziest/quickest approach at reusing the ui_browser ;-) 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-4bgeqizcxh04q0sk24cw43gk@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf ui browser: Allow initial use without navigation UI elements

2011-10-18T19:02:56Z

The selection and scroll bar are really needed only when the user starts navigating, before that it just provide distractions. This also brings the initial screen to look more like the stdio UI, which more people are used to. The new code is flexible enough that menu like browsers can opt out and start with those UI elements.

perf ui browser: Add filter method

2011-10-14T15:49:08Z

Its becoming common to allow the user to filter out parts of the data structure being browsed, like already done in the hists browser and in the annotate browser in the next commit, so provide it directly in the ui_browser class list_head helpers. More work required to move the equivalent routines found now in the hists browser to the rb_tree helpers.

perf ui browser: Remove ui_browser__add_exit_keys

2011-10-13T11:53:18Z

Users (hist_browser, etc) should just handle all keys, discarding the ones they don't handle.

perf ui browser: Handle SIGWINCH

2011-10-13T11:52:46Z

To do that we needed to stop using newtForm, as we don't want libnewt to catch the xterm resize signal. Remove some more newt calls and instead use the underlying libslang directly. In time tools/perf will use just libslang.

perf hists browser: Recalculate browser pointers after resort/decay

2011-10-11T19:16:54Z

In browsers that access dynamic underlying data structures, like in the hists browser and its hist_entry rb_tree, we need to revalidate any reference to the underlying data structure, because they can have gone away, decayed. This fixes a problem where after a while the top entries get behind the top of the screen, i.e. the top_idx stays at 0, which means it is at the first entry in the rb_tree when in fact it wasn't because the browser->top didn't got revalidated after the timer ran and the underlying data structure got updated.

perf ui browser: Introduce ui_browser__show_title

2011-02-25T14:33:31Z

Needed because we were only showing the title in ui_browser__show, not in ui_browser__run, and in the run loop we may be calling other browsers that would then change the title, when we go back to the previous browser, we need to redraw the title. We could have done this as the Newt help line, with pop, etc, but I don't think its worth, doing it explicitely, when needed (some browsers may not use the title area at all) seems enough/more flexible.

perf ui browser: Add routines to compactly specify exit keys

2010-08-19T22:44:18Z

This makes the usual idiom for specifying a series of key codes to exit ui_browser__run() for specialized processing (search, annotate, etc) or plain exiting the browser more compact. It also abstracts away some more libnewt operations. At some point we'll also replace NEWT_KEY_foo with something that can be mapped to NEWT or, say, gtk.
