perf tools: Add PMU configuration to tools

2016-09-22T16:07:36+00:00

Now that the required mechanic is there to deal with PMU specific
configuration, add the functionality to the tools where events can be
selected.

perf top: Remove old kernel-only symbol filter

2016-09-05T14:14:50+00:00

Not needed, we already have code to prune aliases.

perf symbols: Mark if a symbol is idle in the library

2016-09-05T14:14:50+00:00

This was being done just in 'perf top', but grouping idle symbols should
be useful in other places as well, so remove one more symbol_filter_t
user by moving this to the symbol library.

perf symbols: Rename ->ignore to ->idle

2016-08-30T14:15:59+00:00

Since this is the only use thus far, and this mechanism is in place for
a long time. To clarify why symbols should be skipped or treated
differently, name it for the only use it has.

perf annotate: Initialize the priv are in symbol__new()

2016-08-30T13:56:34+00:00

We need to initializa some fields (right now just a mutex) when we
allocate the per symbol annotation struct, so do it at the symbol
constructor instead of (ab)using the filter mechanism for that.

This way we remove one of the few cases we have for that symbol filter,
which will eventually led to removing it.

perf annotate: Introduce strerror for handling symbol__disassemble() errors

2016-08-01T21:18:16+00:00

We were just using pr_error() which makes it difficult for non stdio UIs
to provide errors using its widgets, as they need to somehow catch what
was passed to pr_error().

Fix it by introducing a __strerror() interface like the ones used
elsewhere, for instance target__strerror().

This is just the initial step, more work will be done, but first some
error handling bugs noticed while working on this need to be dealt with.

perf annotate: Rename symbolannotate() to symboldisassemble()

2016-08-01T20:06:46+00:00

This function will not annotate anything, it will just disassembly the
given map->dso and symbol.

It currently does this by parsing the output of 'objdump --disassemble',
but this could conceivably be done using a library or an offshot of
the kernel's instruction decoder (arch/x86/lib/inat.c), etc.

tools: Introduce str_error_r()

2016-07-12T18:19:47+00:00

The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.

But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.

So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

perf evlist: Rename for_each() macros to for_each_entry()

2016-06-23T14:26:15+00:00

To match the semantics for list.h in the kernel, that are used to
implement those macros.
