perf hists browser: Fix NULL deref in hists browsing code

2012-04-05T21:58:45+00:00

If there's an event with no samples in data file, the perf report
command can segfault after entering the event details menu.

Following steps reproduce the issue:

 # ./perf record -e syscalls:sys_enter_kexec_load,syscalls:sys_enter_mmap ls
 # ./perf report
 # enter '0 syscalls:sys_enter_kexec_load' menu
 # pres ENTER twice

Above steps are valid assuming ls wont run kexec.. ;)

The check for sellection to be NULL is missing. The fix makes sure it's
being check. Above steps now endup with menu being displayed allowing
'Exit' as the only option.

perf ui browser: Clean lines inside of the input window

2012-03-19T15:07:30+00:00

As Arnaldo pointed out, it should be cleared to prevent the window from
displaying overlapped strings on the region.

perf ui browser: Add 's' key to filter by symbol name

2012-03-16T19:34:13+00:00

Now user can enter symbol name interested via ui_browser__input_window,
and perf can process it using hists__filter_by_symbol(). Giving empty
symbol (by pressing 's' followed by ENTER) will disable the filtering.

The ui_browser__input_window() function is to get user's key input.
Current implementation can handle maximum 49 characters.

perf tools: Use scnprintf where applicable

2012-03-14T15:36:19+00:00

Several places were expecting that the value returned was the number of
characters printed, not what would be printed if there was space.

Fix it by using the scnprintf and vscnprintf variants we inherited from
the kernel sources.

Some corner cases where the number of printed characters were not
accounted were fixed too.

perf report: Fix annotate double quit issue in branch view mode

2012-03-12T19:46:16+00:00

This patch fixes perf report to not go back two levels when
pressing the 'q' key while annotating in branch view mode.

When pressing 'q' in annotate mode and if the branch source
and target belong to different functions, perf now brings
up the annotation popup menu again to offer the option to
annotate the other branch source or target.

As part of the code restructuring in perf_evsel__hists_browse()
we also fix a memory leak on options[] in case of error.

perf report: Remove duplicate annotate choice in branch view mode

2012-03-12T19:46:16+00:00

This patch removes the duplicated annotate selection when
browsing in branch view mode. If the sym and dso oof the branch
source and target are the same, then only one annotate choice is
proposed.

perf report: Enable TUI in branch view mode

2012-03-09T07:26:08+00:00

This patch updates perf report to support TUI mode
when the perf.data file contains samples with branch
stacks.

For each row in the report, it is possible to annotate
either the source or target of each branch.
