tools perf scripting python: clang doesn't have -spec, remove it

2017-02-17T13:31:13+00:00

Gcc has a -spec option to override what options to pass to cc, etc, and
in some distros this is used, like in fedora, where we end up getting
this passed to gcc that makes clang, that doesn't have this option to
stop the build:

  CC       /tmp/build/perf/util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.o
clang-4.0: error: argument unused during compilation: '-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-cc1' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument]

So filter this out when the compiler used is clang, this way we
can build the python scripting support in tools/perf/.

lib, traceevent: add PRINT_HEX_STR variant

2017-01-25T18:17:47+00:00

Add support for the __print_hex_str() macro that was added for
tracing, so that user space tools such as perf can understand
it as well.

tools: Introduce tools/include/linux/time64.h for SEC_PER_SEC macros

2016-08-23T18:37:33+00:00

And remove it from tools/perf/{perf,util}.h, making code that needs
these macros to include linux/time64.h instead, to match how this is
used in the kernel sources.

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 script python: Fix string vs byte array resolving

2016-07-18T22:48:04+00:00

Jirka reported that python code returns all arrays as strings.  This
makes impossible to get all items for byte array tracepoint field
containing 0x00 value item.

Fixing this by scanning full length of the array and returning it as
PyByteArray object in case non printable byte is found.

perf script python: Silence -Werror=maybe-uninitialized on gcc 5.3.0

2016-07-12T18:20:39+00:00

Sounds like a compiler bug, but to silence it, initialize those
variables to NULL.

Noticed on:

perf tools: Use SBUILD_ID_SIZE where applicable

2016-05-11T16:06:06+00:00

Use the existing SBUILD_ID_SIZE macro instead of the equivalent
BUILD_ID_SIZE * 2 + 1 expression for allocating a buffer for build-id
strings.

perf scripting python: Use Py_FatalError instead of die()

2016-05-11T15:24:57+00:00

It probably is equivalent, but that seems to be the "pythonic" way of
dieing? Anyway, one less die() in the tools/perf codebase.

perf script: Fix incorrect python db-export error message

2016-05-09T17:08:39+00:00

Fix the error message printed when attempting and failing to create the
call path root incorrectly references the call return process.

This change fixes the message to properly reference the failure to
create the call path root.
