Python and perl scripting code will define those callbacks and get stat
data.

perf python: Remove dependency on 'machine' methods

2015-07-29T13:51:44+00:00

The python binding still doesn't provide symbol resolving facilities,
but the recent addition of the trace_event__register_resolver() function
made it add as a dependency the machine__resolve_kernel_addr() method,
that in turn drags all the symbol resolving code.

The problem:

  [root@zoo ~]# perf test -v python
  17: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems      :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 6853
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "", line 1, in 
  ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: machine__resolve_kernel_addr
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED!
  [root@zoo ~]#

Fix it by requiring this function to receive the resolver as a
parameter, just like pevent_register_function_resolver(), i.e. do
not explicitely refer to an object file not included in
tools/perf/util/python-ext-sources.

  [root@zoo ~]# perf test python
  17: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems      : Ok
  [root@zoo ~]#

perf symbols: Provide libtraceevent callback to resolve kernel symbols

2015-07-24T01:01:37+00:00

That provides the function signature expected by libtraceevent's
pevent_set_function_resolver().

perf scripting: No need to pass thread twice to the scripting callbacks

2015-04-02T16:18:41+00:00

It is already in the addr_location, so remove the redundant 'thread'
parameter from the callback signatures.

perf tools: Introduce event_format__fprintf method

2015-02-06T10:46:37+00:00

The existing one, event_format__print() uses stdout unconditionally,
and 'perf trace' needs to use it to format into a file that may have
been set by the user, i.e. 'trace -o file.output'.

perf scripting: Add 'flush' callback to scripting API

2014-08-22T16:12:11+00:00

In order to defer some output via the scripting API, there needs to be a
callback after session processing but before the session is deleted.

perf symbols: Add 'machine' member to struct addr_location

2013-12-19T20:38:27+00:00

The addr_location struct should fully qualify an address, and to do that
it should have in it the machine where the thread was found.

Thus all functions that receive an addr_location now don't need to also
receive a 'machine', those functions just need to access al->machine
instead, just like it does with the other parts of an address location:
al->thread, al->map, etc.

perf tools: Add trace-event global object for tracepoint interface

2013-12-04T18:21:25+00:00

In order to get the proper plugins processing we need to use full
trace-event interface when creating tracepoint events. So far we were
using shortcut to get the parsed format.

Moving current 'event_format__new' function into trace-event object as
'trace_event__tp_format'.

This function uses properly initialized global trace-event object,
ensuring proper plugins processing.
