tools: Introduce tools/include/linux/time64.h for SEC_PER_SEC macros

2016-08-23T18:37:33+00:00

And remove it from tools/perf/{perf,util}.h, making code that needs
these macros to include linux/time64.h instead, to match how this is
used in the kernel sources.

perf tools: Make binary data printer code in trace_event public available

2016-02-24T14:38:01+00:00

Move code printing binray data from trace_event() to utils.c and allows
passing different printer. Further commits will use this logic to print
bpf output event.

perf debug: Rename __eprintf(va_list args) to veprintf

perf data: Add perf data to CTF conversion support

2015-02-25T19:13:12+00:00

Adding 'perf data convert' to convert perf data file into different
format. This patch adds support for CTF format conversion.

To convert perf.data into CTF run:
  $ perf data convert --to-ctf=./ctf-data/
  [ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './ctf-data/' ]
  [ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 11.268 MB (100230 samples) ]

The command will create CTF metadata out of perf.data file (or one
specified via -i option) and then convert all sample events into single
CTF stream.

Each sample_type bit is translated into separated CTF event field apart
from following exceptions:

  PERF_SAMPLE_RAW          - added in next patch
  PERF_SAMPLE_READ         - TODO
  PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN    - TODO
  PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK - TODO
  PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER    - TODO
  PERF_SAMPLE_STACK_USER   - TODO

  $ perf --debug=data-convert=2 data convert ...

The converted CTF data could be analyzed by CTF tools, like babletrace
or tracecompass [1].

  $ babeltrace ./ctf-data/

The following members to the ctf-environment were decided to be added to
distinguish and specify perf CTF data:

  - domain

    It says "kernel" because it contains a kernel trace (not to be
    confused with a user space like lttng-ust does)

  - tracer_name

    It says perf. This can be used to distinguish between lttng and perf
    CTF based trace.

  - version

    The kernel version from stream. In addition to release, this is what
    it looks like on a Debian kernel:

      release = "3.14-1-amd64";
      version = "3.14.0";

perf tools: Allow to force redirect pr_debug to stderr.

2014-11-24T21:03:48+00:00

When debugging the tui browser I find it useful to redirect the debug
log into a file. Currently it's always forced to the message line.

Add an option to force it to stderr. Then it can be easily redirected.

Example:

  [root@zoo ~]# perf --debug stderr report -vv 2> /tmp/debug
  [root@zoo ~]# tail /tmp/debug
  dso open failed, mmap: No such file or directory
  dso open failed, mmap: No such file or directory
  dso open failed, mmap: No such file or directory
  dso open failed, mmap: No such file or directory
  dso open failed, mmap: No such file or directory
  Using /root/.debug/.build-id/4e/841948927029fb650132253642d5dbb2c1fb93 for symbols
  Failed to open /tmp/perf-8831.map, continuing without symbols
  Failed to open /tmp/perf-12721.map, continuing without symbols
  Failed to open /tmp/perf-6966.map, continuing without symbols
  Failed to open /tmp/perf-8802.map, continuing without symbols

perf tools: Add debug prints for ordered events queue

2014-08-12T15:03:01+00:00

Adding some prints for ordered events queue, to help debug issues.

Adding debug_ordered_events debug variable to be able to enable ordered
events debug messages using:

  $ perf --debug ordered-events=2 report ...

Also using oe pointer in perf_session__queue_event instead of chained
session variable dereferencing.

perf tools: Add --debug optionto set debug variable

2014-07-17T15:58:59+00:00

Adding --debug option as a way to setup debug variables.  Starting with
support for verbose, more will come.

It's possible to use it now with report command:
  $ perf --debug verbose   ...
  $ perf --debug verbose=2 ...

I'll need this support to add separated debug variable for ordered
events change in order to separate debug output out of standard verbose
stream.
