tools lib traceevent: Make plugin unload function receive pevent

2014-01-15T18:10:40Z

The PEVENT_PLUGIN_UNLOADER function might need some cleanup using pevent like unregister some handlers. So pass pevent as argument.

tools lib traceevent: Add plugin support

2013-12-04T18:16:44Z

Backporting plugin support for traceevent lib. Backported from Steven Rostedt's trace-cmd repo (HEAD 0f2c2fb): git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/trace-cmd.git It's now possible to use following interface to load plugins (shared objects) to enhance pevent object functionality. The plugin interface/hooks are as follows: (taken from event-parse.h comments) - 'pevent_plugin_loader' (required) The function name to initialized the plugin. int pevent_plugin_loader(struct pevent *pevent) - 'pevent_plugin_unloader' (optional) The function called just before unloading int pevent_plugin_unloader(void) - 'pevent_plugin_options' (optional) Plugin options that can be set before loading struct plugin_option pevent_plugin_options[] = { { .name = "option-name", .plugin_alias = "overide-file-name", (optional) .description = "description of option to show users", }, { .name = NULL, }, }; Array must end with .name = NULL; The plugin_alias (below) can be used to give a shorter name to access the variable. Useful if a plugin handles more than one event. NOTE options support is not backported yet. - 'pevent_plugin_alias' (optional) The name to use for finding options (uses filename if not defined) New traceevent functions are added to search and load available plugins: struct plugin_list* traceevent_load_plugins(struct pevent *pevent) - loads plusing for 'struct pevent' object and returns loaded plugins list void traceevent_unload_plugins(struct plugin_list *plugin_list); - unload plugin list Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: Corey Ashford Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Steven Rostedt Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1386076182-14484-3-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
