perf tools: Fix legacy events symbol separator parsing

2019-02-14T18:18:08+00:00

Fixing legacy symbol events parsing. We can't support single slash
separator, like 'cycles/u', because it conflicts with non empty terms,
like 'cycles/period/u'.

Keeping only '//' and ':' separator for these events:
  cycles//u
  cycles:k

And removing '/' separator support, which is not working
anymore. Also adding automated tests for above events.

perf tests: Fix complex event name parsing

2018-07-31T13:52:23+00:00

The 'umask' event parameter is unsupported on some architectures like
powerpc64.

This can be observed on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as shown
below.

  # perf test "Parse event definition strings" -v

After applying the patch these test passes and in verbose mode we get:

perf tests: Check that complex event name is parsed correctly

2018-07-24T17:37:11+00:00

Extend regression testing to cover case of complex event names enabled
by the cset f92da71280fb ("perf record: Enable arbitrary event names
thru name= modifier").

Testing it:

  # perf test

   2: Detect openat syscall event                           : Ok

perf tests: Add valid callback for parse-events test

2018-06-25T14:59:36+00:00

Adding optional 'valid' callback for events tests in parse-events
object, so we don't try to parse PMUs, which are not supported.

Following line is displayed for skipped test:

  running test 52 'intel_pt//u'... SKIP

Committer note:

Use named initializers in the struct evlist_test variable to avoid
breaking the build on centos:5, 6 and others with a similar gcc:

  cc1: warnings being treated as errors
  tests/parse-events.c: In function 'test_pmu_events':
  tests/parse-events.c:1817: error: missing initializer
  tests/parse-events.c:1817: error: (near initialization for 'e.type')

perf tests: Add event parsing error handling to parse events test

2018-06-25T14:59:36+00:00

Add missing error handling for parse_events calls in test_event function
that led to following segfault on s390:

  running test 52 'intel_pt//u'
  perf: Segmentation fault
  ...
  /lib64/libc.so.6(vasprintf+0xe6) [0x3fffca3f106]
  /lib64/libc.so.6(asprintf+0x46) [0x3fffca1aa96]

  ./perf(test__parse_events+0x48) [0x800cd140]
  ./perf(cmd_test+0x26a) [0x800bd44a]
  test child interrupted

Adding the struct parse_events_error argument to parse_events call. Also
adding parse_events_print_error to get more details on the parsing
failures, like:

  # perf test 6 -v
  running test 52 'intel_pt//u'failed to parse event 'intel_pt//u', err 1, str 'Cannot find PMU `intel_pt'. Missing kernel support?'
  event syntax error: 'intel_pt//u'
                       \___ Cannot find PMU `intel_pt'. Missing kernel support?

avoid breaking the build on centos5, 6 and others with a similar gcc:

perf evsel: Add has_callchain() helper to make code more compact/clear

2018-06-05T13:09:54+00:00

Its common to have the (evsel->attr.sample_type & PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN),
so add an evsel__has_callchain(evsel) helper.

This will actually get more uses as we check that instead of
symbol_conf.use_callchain in places where that produces the same result
but makes this decision to be more fine grained, per evsel.

tools lib api fs tracing_path: Introduce opendir() method

2018-05-17T17:50:38+00:00

That takes care of using the right call to get the tracing_path
directory, the one that will end up calling tracing_path_set() to figure
out where tracefs is mounted.

One more step in doing just lazy reading of system structures to reduce
the number of operations done unconditionaly at 'perf' start.

perf parse-events: Use get/put_events_file()

2018-05-17T17:49:36+00:00

Instead of accessing the trace_events_path variable directly, that may
not have been properly initialized wrt detecting where tracefs is
mounted.

perf tests parse-events: Add intel_pt parse test

2018-05-15T13:31:59+00:00

To avoid regressions such as the one fixed by 4a35a9027f64 ("Revert
"perf pmu: Fix pmu events parsing rule""), where '-e intel_pt//u' got
broken, with this new entry in this 'perf tests' subtest, we would have
caught it before pushing upstream.
