2018-02-15T12:57:19+00:00

Instead of home grown function let's use what library provides us.

perf hists browser: Add parameter to disable lost event warning

2018-02-15T12:56:26+00:00

For overwrite mode, the ringbuffer will be paused. The event lost is
expected. It needs a way to notify the browser not print the warning.

It will be used later for perf top to disable lost event warning in
overwrite mode. There is no behavior change for now.

perf evsel: Expose the perf_missing_features struct

2018-02-15T12:54:53+00:00

As tools may need to adjust to missing features, as 'perf top' will, in
the next csets, to cope with a missing 'write_backward' feature.

perf mmap: Discard legacy interface for mmap read

2018-02-15T12:54:17+00:00

Discards perf_mmap__read_backward() and perf_mmap__read_catchup(). No
tools use them.

There are tools still use perf_mmap__read_forward(). Keep it, but add
comments to point to the new interface for future use.

perf mmap: Introduce perf_mmap__read_event()

2018-02-15T12:53:40+00:00

Except for 'perf record', the other perf tools read events one by one
from the ring buffer using perf_mmap__read_forward(). But it only
supports non-overwrite mode.

Introduce perf_mmap__read_event() to support both non-overwrite and
overwrite mode.

Usage:
perf_mmap__read_init()
while(event = perf_mmap__read_event()) {
        //process the event
        perf_mmap__consume()
}
perf_mmap__read_done()

It cannot use perf_mmap__read_backward(). Because it always reads the
stale buffer which is already processed. Furthermore, the forward and
backward concepts have been removed. The perf_mmap__read_backward() will
be replaced and discarded later.

perf mmap: Introduce perf_mmap__read_done()

2018-02-15T12:53:15+00:00

The direction of overwrite mode is backward. The last perf_mmap__read()
will set tail to map->prev. Need to correct the map->prev to head which
is the end of next read.

It will be used later.

perf mmap: Discard 'prev' in perf_mmap__read()

2018-02-15T12:53:06+00:00

The 'start' and 'prev' variables are duplicates in perf_mmap__read().

Use 'map->prev' to replace 'start' in perf_mmap__read_*().

perf mmap: Add new return value logic for perf_mmap__read_init()

2018-02-15T12:52:49+00:00

Improve the readability by using meaningful enum (-EAGAIN, -EINVAL and
0) to replace the three returning states (0, -1 and 1).

perf mmap: Introduce perf_mmap__read_init()

2018-02-15T12:52:22+00:00

The new function perf_mmap__read_init() is factored out from
perf_mmap__push().

It is to calculate the 'start' and 'end' of the available data in
ringbuffer.

No functional change.

perf mmap: Cleanup perf_mmap__push()

The first assignment for 'start' and 'end' is redundant.
