perf tools: Fix statfs.f_type data type mismatch build error with uclibc

2015-01-16T20:49:29Z

ARC Linux uses the no legacy syscalls abi and corresponding uClibc headers statfs defines f_type to be U32 which causes perf build breakage http://git.uclibc.org/uClibc/tree/libc/sysdeps/linux/common-generic/bits/statfs.h ----------->8--------------- CC fs/fs.o fs/fs.c: In function 'fs__valid_mount': fs/fs.c:82:24: error: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Werror=sign-compare] else if (st_fs.f_type != magic) ^ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors ----------->8--------------- Signed-off-by: Alexey Brodkin Acked-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Cody P Schafer Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Vineet Gupta Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1420888254-17504-2-git-send-email-vgupta@synopsys.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

Will be useful for new helpers to read sysctl values. Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: David Ahern Cc: Don Zickus Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

tools lib fd array: Allow associating an integer cookie with each entry

2014-09-25T19:46:55Z

We will use this in perf's evlist class so that it can, at fdarray__filter() time, to unmap the associated ring buffer. We may need to have further info associated with each fdarray entry, in that case we'll make that int array a 'union fdarray_priv' one and put a pointer there so that users can stash whatever they want there. For now, an int is enough tho. v2: Add clarification to the per array entry priv area, as well as make it a union, which makes usage a bit longer, but if/when we make it use more space by allowing per entry pointers existing users source code will not have to be changed, just rebuilt.

tools lib api: Adopt fdarray class from perf's evlist

2014-09-25T19:46:55Z

The extensible file description array that grew in the perf_evlist class can be useful for other tools, as it is not something that only evlists need, so move it to tools/lib/api/fd to ease sharing it. v2: Don't use {} like in: libapi_dirs: $(QUIET_MKDIR)mkdir -p $(OUTPUT){fs,fd}/ in Makefiles, as it will not work in some systems, as in ubuntu13.10. v3: Add fd/*.[ch] to LIBAPIKFS_SOURCES (Fix from Jiri Olsa) v4: Leave the fcntl(fd, O_NONBLOCK) in the evlist layer, remains to be checked if it is really needed there, but has no place in the fdarray class (Fix from Jiri Olsa) v5: Remove evlist details from fdarray grow/filter tests. Improve it a bit doing more tests about expected internal state.

perf tools: Remove extra '/' character in events file path

2014-04-30T15:02:24Z

The array debugfs_known_mountpoints[] will cause extra '/' character output. Remove it. pre: $ perf probe -l /sys/kernel/debug//tracing/uprobe_events file does not exist - please rebuild kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS. post: $ perf probe -l /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events file does not exist - please rebuild kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS.

tools/: Convert to new topic libraries

2013-12-16T19:03:27Z

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.
