perf trace: Decode architecture-specific signal numbers

2014-03-10T14:10:45+00:00

SIGSTKFLT is not defined on alpha, mips or sparc.

SIGEMT and SIGSWI are defined on some architectures and should be
decoded here if so.

perf trace: Fix ioctl 'request' beautifier build problems on !(i386 || x86_64) arches

2014-02-13T20:28:31+00:00

Supporting decoding the ioctl 'request' parameter needs more work to
properly support more architectures, the current approach doesn't work
on at least powerpc and sparc, as reported by Ben Hutchings in
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1391593985.3003.48.camel@deadeye.wl.decadent.org.uk .

Work around that by making it to be ifdefed for the architectures known
to work with the current, limited approach, i386 and x86_64 till better
code is written.

perf trace: Add fallback definition of EFD_SEMAPHORE

2014-02-10T14:34:31+00:00

glibc 2.17 is missing this on sparc, despite the fact that it's not
architecture-specific.

perf record: Rename --no-delay to --no-buffering

2014-01-14T20:57:04+00:00

That is how the option summary describes it and so that we can free
--delay to replace --initial-delay and then be consistent with stat's
--delay equivalent option.

perf trace: Pack 'struct trace'

2014-01-13T13:06:23+00:00

Initial struct stats:

	/* size: 368, cachelines: 6, members: 24 */
	/* sum members: 353, holes: 3, sum holes: 15 */
	/* last cacheline: 48 bytes */

After reorg:

[acme@ssdandy linux]$ pahole -C trace ~/bin/trace | tail -4
	/* size: 360, cachelines: 6, members: 24 */
	/* padding: 7 */
	/* last cacheline: 40 bytes */
};
[acme@ssdandy linux]$

perf evlist: Auto unmap on destructor

2014-01-13T13:06:22+00:00

Removing further boilerplate after making sure perf_evlist__munmap can
be called multiple times for the same evlist.

perf evlist: Close fds on destructor

2014-01-13T13:06:22+00:00

Since it is safe to call perf_evlist__close() multiple times, autoclose
it and remove the calls to the close from existing tools, reducing the
tooling boilerplate.

perf evlist: Move destruction of maps to evlist destructor

2014-01-13T13:06:21+00:00

Instead of requiring tools to do an extra destructor call just before
calling perf_evlist__delete.

perf evlist: Move the SIGUSR1 error reporting logic to prepare_workload

2014-01-13T13:06:21+00:00

So that we have the boilerplate in the preparation method, instead of
open coded in tools wanting the reporting when the exec fails.

perf tools: Introduce zfree

2013-12-27T18:17:00+00:00

For the frequent idiom of:

   free(ptr);
   ptr = NULL;

Make it expect a pointer to the pointer being freed, so that it becomes
clear at first sight that the variable being freed is being modified.
