perf tools: Make is_printable_array global

2016-07-18T22:49:47+00:00

It's used from 2 objects in perf, so it's better to keep just one copy.

perf python: Add support to resolve tracepoint fields

2016-07-12T19:19:16+00:00

Adding tp_getattro callback for sample event. It resolves tracepoint
fields in runtime.

It's now possible to access tracepoint fields in normal fashion like
hardcoded ones (see the example in the next patch).

perf python: Add struct evsel into struct pyrf_event

2016-07-12T19:18:36+00:00

To be able to find out event configuration info during sample parsing.

perf python: Add perf.tracepoint method

2016-07-12T19:17:54+00:00

To get id of the tracepoint from subsystem and name strings. The
interface is:

  id = perf.tracepoint(sys, name)

In case of error -1 is returned.

It will be used to get python tracepoint event's config value for
tracepoint event.

perf python: Put perf.event objects into dictionary

2016-07-12T19:17:14+00:00

Make perf.event object parts of the perf module dictionary so we can
address them by name.

The following objects/names are added:

  mmap_event
  lost_event
  comm_event
  task_event
  throttle_event
  task_event
  read_event
  sample_event
  switch_event

We can now use it in python script like:
  ...
  event = evlist.read_on_cpu(cpu)
  ...
  if not isinstance(event, perf.sample_event):

perf python: Fix pyrf_evlist__read_on_cpu event consuming

2016-07-12T19:16:44+00:00

We can't consume the event before parsing it. Under heavy load we could
get caught by kernel writer overwriting the event we're trying to parse.

perf python: Init perf_event_attr::size in perf.evsel constructor

2016-07-12T19:16:17+00:00

Currently 0 is passed as perf_event_attr::size, which could block usage
of new features.

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.

perf python: Support the PERF_RECORD_SWITCH event

2015-10-07T22:41:50+00:00

To test it check tools/perf/python/twatch.py, after following the
instructions there to enable context_switch, output looks like:

perf python: Add missing PERF_RECORD_{MMAP2,AUX,etc}

2015-07-29T13:51:45+00:00

Those were added to the kernel and tooling but we forgot to
expose them via the python binding, fix it.
