perf tools: Add reference counting for thread_map object

2015-06-25T18:15:50+00:00

Adding reference counting for thread_map object, so it could be easily
shared among other objects.

Using thread_map__put instead thread_map__delete and making
thread_map__delete static.

perf tools: Add reference counting for cpu_map object

perf tools: Add parse_events_error interface

2015-04-29T13:37:58+00:00

Adding support to return error information from parse_events function.
Following struct will be populated by parse_events function on return:

  struct parse_events_error {
    int   idx;
    char *str;
    char *help;
  };

where 'idx' is the position in the string where the parsing failed,
'str' contains dynamically allocated error string describing the error
and 'help' is optional help string.

The change contains reporting function, which currently does not display
anything. The code changes to supply error data for specific event types
are coming in next patches. However this is what the expected output is:

  $ sudo perf record -e 'sched:krava' ls
  event syntax error: 'sched:krava'
                       \___ unknown tracepoint
  ...

  $ perf record -e 'cpu/even=0x1/' ls
  event syntax error: 'cpu/even=0x1/'
                           \___ unknown term

  valid terms: pc,any,inv,edge,cmask,event,in_tx,ldlat,umask,in_tx_cp,offcore_rsp,config,config1,config2,name,period,branch_type
  ...

  $ perf record -e cycles,cache-mises ls
  event syntax error: '..es,cache-mises'
                                 \___ parser error
  ...

The output functions cut the beginning of the event string so the error
starts up to 10th character and cut the end of the string of it crosses
the terminal width.

tools: Consolidate types.h

2014-05-01T19:22:39+00:00

Combine all definitions into a common tools/include/linux/types.h and
kill the wild growth elsewhere. Move DECLARE_BITMAP to its proper
bitmap.h header.

perf evlist: Auto unmap on destructor

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

calling perf_evlist__delete.

perf tools: Rename 'perf_record_opts' to 'record_opts

2013-12-19T17:43:45+00:00

Reduce typing, functions use class__method convention, so unlikely to
clash with other libraries.

This actually was discussed in the "Link:" referenced message below.

perf tools: Fixup mmap event consumption

2013-10-28T19:06:00+00:00

The tail position of the event buffer should only be modified after
actually use that event.

If not the event buffer could be invalid before use, and segment fault
occurs when invoking perf top -G.

perf tests: Add 'keep tracking' test

2013-09-02T17:58:20+00:00

Add a test for the newly added PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY event.  The test
checks that tracking events continue when an event is disabled but a
dummy software event is not disabled.
