2012-10-02perf inject: Remove static variablesArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We want to reduce the impact that each of the builtins has on perf as a whole, so use the superclassing of perf_tool mechanizm to move its config knobs to the stack, so that only if we use that tool, its impact will be felt. In this case is more about consistency, as the impact of this tool is minimal.

2012-09-26perf trace: New toolArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Initially should look loosely like the venerable 'strace' tool, but using the infrastructure in the perf tools to allow tracing extra targets: [acme@sandy linux]$ perf trace --hell Error: unknown option `hell' usage: perf trace <PID> -p, --pid <pid> trace events on existing process id --tid <tid> trace events on existing thread id --all-cpus system-wide collection from all CPUs --cpu <cpu> list of cpus to monitor --no-inherit child tasks do not inherit counters --mmap-pages <n> number of mmap data pages --uid <user> user to profile [acme@sandy linux]$ Those should have the same semantics as when using with 'perf record'. It gets stuck sometimes, but hey, it works sometimes too! In time it should support perf.data based workloads, i.e. it should have a: -o filename Command line option that will produce a perf.data file that can then be used with 'perf trace' or any of the other perf tools (script, report, etc). It will also eventually have the set of functionalities described in the previous 'trace' prototype by Thomas Gleixner: "Announcing a new utility: 'trace'" http://lwn.net/Articles/415728/ Also planned is to have some of the features suggested in the comments of that LWN article.

2012-09-26perf evlist: Renane set_filters method to apply_filtersArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Because that is what it really does, i.e. it applies the filters that were parsed from the command line and stashed into the evsels they refer to. We'll need the set_filter method name to actually apply a filter to all the evsels in an evlist, for instance, to ask that a syswide tracer doesn't trace itself.

2012-09-26perf test: Add test to check we correctly parse and match syscall open parmsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
It will set up a syscall open tracepoint event, generate an open with invalid flags, then check those flags were the ones reported in the tracepoint fired. For the filename we need vfs:getname, but that will go thru some more iterations as the vfs getname codebase is going thru changes lately. When that is in I'll just check that the perf_evsel__newtp constructor is not bailing out and then add it to the evlist, catch the event and check the filename against the one used in the 'open' call used to trigger the event.

2012-09-26perf evsel: Handle endianity in intval methodArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
We were relying on the info in pevent, but since we have it in perf_evsel, set up by the perf_session routine if read from a perf.data file or by whoever creates the evsels, use it. New 'perf test' entries will use it to parse locally generated events, in a non perf.data centered workflow. As well as use byteswap.h to get per arch optimized swap routines, like other parts of perf (header, perf_evsel__parse_sample, symbol, etc) already do.

If __pevent_parse_format() succeeded but add_event() failed, 'ret' didn't have a proper error code. Set it to PEVENT_ERRNO__MEM_ALLOC_FAILED. In addition, at that point 'event' also has fields and format information and they all need to be freed. Call pevent_free_format() to handle it.

2012-09-24trace: Move trace event enable from fs_initcall to core_initcallEzequiel Garcia
This patch splits trace event initialization in two stages: * ftrace enable * sysfs event entry creation This allows to capture trace events from an earlier point by using 'trace_event' kernel parameter and is important to trace boot-up allocations. Note that, in order to enable events at core_initcall, it's necessary to move init_ftrace_syscalls() from core_initcall to early_initcall.

2012-09-24tracing: Add an option for disabling markersMandeep Singh Baines
In our application, we have trace markers spread through user-space. We have markers in GL, X, etc. These are super handy for Chrome's about:tracing feature (Chrome + system + kernel trace view), but can be very distracting when you're trying to debug a kernel issue. I normally, use "grep -v tracing_mark_write" but it would be nice if I could just temporarily disable markers all together.
