tools lib traceevent: Fix a risk for doing free on uninitialized pointer

2014-06-27T09:14:47Z

Fix a risk of doing free on an uninitialized pointer. This was found using a static code analysis program called cppcheck.

tools lib traceevent: Added support for __get_bitmask() macro

2014-06-07T21:33:37Z

Coming in v3.16, trace events will be able to save bitmasks in raw format in the ring buffer and output it with the __get_bitmask() macro. In order for userspace tools to parse this, it must be able to handle the __get_bitmask() call and be able to convert the data that's in the ring buffer into a nice bitmask format. The output is similar to what the kernel uses to print bitmasks, with a comma separator every 4 bytes (8 characters). This allows for cpumasks to also be saved efficiently. The first user is the thermal:thermal_power_limit event which has the following output: thermal_power_limit: cpus=0000000f freq=1900000 cdev_state=0 power=5252 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140506132238.22e136d1@gandalf.local.home Suggested-by: Javi Merino Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Acked-by: Namhyung Kim Tested-by: Javi Merino Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140603032224.229186537@goodmis.org Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa

tools lib traceevent: Fix memory leak in pretty_print()

2014-04-23T11:19:30Z

Commit 12e55569a244 "tools lib traceevent: Use helper trace-seq in print functions like kernel does" added a extra trace_seq helper to process string arguments like the kernel does it. But the difference between the kernel and the userspace library is that the kernel's trace_seq structure has a static allocated buffer. The userspace one has a dynamically allocated one. It requires a trace_seq_destroy(), otherwise it produces a nasty memory leak.

tools lib traceevent: Do not call warning() directly

2014-04-14T10:55:00Z

The patch 3a3ffa2e82205 ("tools lib traceevent: Report better error message on bad function args") added the error message but it seems there's no reason to call warning() directly. So change it to do_warning_event() to provide event information too.

tools lib traceevent: Print event name when show warning if possible

2014-04-14T10:55:00Z

It's sometimes useful to know where the parse failure was occurred. Add do_warning_event() macro to see the failing event. It now shows the messages like below: $ perf test 5 5: parse events tests : Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_get_page] bad op token { Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_sync_page] bad op token { Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_unsync_page] bad op token { Warning: [kvmmmu:kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page] bad op token { Warning: [kvmmmu:fast_page_fault] function is_writable_pte not defined Warning: [xen:xen_mmu_ptep_modify_prot_commit] function sizeof not defined Warning: [xen:xen_mmu_ptep_modify_prot_start] function sizeof not defined Warning: [xen:xen_mmu_set_pgd] function sizeof not defined Warning: [xen:xen_mmu_set_pud] function sizeof not defined Warning: [xen:xen_mmu_set_pmd] function sizeof not defined ...

tools lib traceevent: Add pevent_unregister_print_function()

When a plugin unloaded it needs to unregister its print handler from pevent. So add an unregister function to do it.

tools lib traceevent: Introduce pevent_filter_strerror()

2013-12-18T17:47:58Z

The pevent_filter_strerror() function is for receiving actual error message from pevent_errno value. To do that, add a static buffer to event_filter for saving internal error message If a failed function saved other information in the static buffer returns the information, otherwise returns generic error message.

tools lib traceevent: Report better error message on bad function args

2013-12-06T13:39:54Z

When Jiri Olsa was writing a function callback for scsi_trace_parse_cdb(), he thought that the traceevent library had a bug in it because he was getting this error: Error: expected ')' but read ',' Error: expected ')' but read ',' Error: expected ')' but read ',' Error: expected ')' but read ',' But in truth, he didn't have the write number of arguments for the function callback, and the error was the library detecting the discrepancy. A better error message would have prevented the confusion: Error: function 'scsi_trace_parse_cdb()' only expects 2 arguments but event scsi_dispatch_cmd_timeout has more Error: function 'scsi_trace_parse_cdb()' only expects 2 arguments but event scsi_dispatch_cmd_start has more Error: function 'scsi_trace_parse_cdb()' only expects 2 arguments but event scsi_dispatch_cmd_error has more Error: function 'scsi_trace_parse_cdb()' only expects 2 arguments but event scsi_dispatch_cmd_done has more Or Error: function 'scsi_trace_parse_cdb()' expects 4 arguments but event scsi_dispatch_cmd_timeout only uses 3 Error: function 'scsi_trace_parse_cdb()' expects 4 arguments but event scsi_dispatch_cmd_start only uses 3 Error: function 'scsi_trace_parse_cdb()' expects 4 arguments but event scsi_dispatch_cmd_error only uses 3 Error: function 'scsi_trace_parse_cdb()' expects 4 arguments but event scsi_dispatch_cmd_done only uses 3 Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-a4c34w62vl0diitvxb7bt3er@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

tools lib traceevent: Change pevent_parse_format to include pevent handle

2013-12-04T18:18:42Z

Changing the pevent_parse_format interface to include the pevent handle. The goal is to always use pevent object when dealing with traceevent library. The reason is that we might need additional processing (like plugins), which is not possible otherwise. Patches follow to make this happen completely.
