tools/: Convert to new topic libraries

2013-12-16T19:03:27+00:00

Move debugfs.* to api/fs/. We have a common tools/lib/api/ place where
the Makefile lives and then we place the headers in subdirs.

For example, all the fs-related stuff goes to tools/lib/api/fs/ from
which we get libapikfs.a (acme got almost the naming he wanted :-)) and
we link it into the tools which need it - in this case perf and
tools/vm/page-types.

acme:

"Looking at the implementation, I think some tools can even link
directly to the .o files, avoiding the .a file altogether.

But that is just an optimization/finer granularity tools/lib/
cherrypicking that toolers can make use of."

Fixup documentation cleaning target while at it.

perf trace: Add 'trace' alias to 'perf trace'

2013-10-11T15:17:10+00:00

Make 'perf trace' more accessible by aliasing it to just 'trace':

  [root@zoo linux]# trace --duration 15 -a -e futex sleep 1
   110.092 (16.188 ms): libvirtd/1166 futex(uaddr: 0x185b344, op: WAIT|PRIV, val: 174293                    ) = 0

     360.354 (69.053 ms): chromium-brows/15830 futex(uaddr: 0x7fff2986bcb4, op: WAIT_BITSET|PRIV|CLKRT, val: 1, utime: 0x7fff2986bab0, val3: 4294967295) = -1 ETIMEDOUT Connection timed out
  [root@zoo linux]#

I.e. looking for futex calls that take at least 15ms, system wide, during a one
second window. Now to get callchains into 'trace' to figure out what are those
locks :-)

make it easier to configure for memory access profiling.

To record loads:

To record stores:
$ perf mem -t store rec .....

To get the report:
$ perf mem -t load rep

perf tools: Introduce tools/lib/lk library

2013-03-15T16:06:00+00:00

This introduces the tools/lib/lk library, that will gradually have the
routines that now are used in tools/perf/ and other tools and that can
be shared.

Start by carving out debugfs routines for general use.

perf tools: Remove some needless die() calls from the main routine

2013-01-24T19:40:52+00:00

Some would just call exit() anyway right after calling die() and the
main routine doesn't have to call it, just return the exit value.

perf tools: Add gtk. config option for launching GTK browser

2012-11-14T19:51:30+00:00

Add config option for launching GTK browser for the specified command by
default.  Currently only 'report' command is supported.

Adding following line to the perfconfig file will have a same effect of
specifying --gtk option on command line (unless other related options
are not given).

$ cat ~/.perfconfig
[gtk]
report = true
