perf python: Support the PERF_RECORD_SWITCH event

2015-10-07T22:41:50Z

To test it check tools/perf/python/twatch.py, after following the instructions there to enable context_switch, output looks like: [root@zoo linux]# tools/perf/python/twatch.py cpu: 1, pid: 31463, tid: 31463 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31463, switch_out: 0 } cpu: 2, pid: 31463, tid: 31496 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31496, switch_out: 0 } cpu: 2, pid: 31463, tid: 31496 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31496, switch_out: 1 } cpu: 3, pid: 31463, tid: 31527 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31527, switch_out: 0 } cpu: 1, pid: 31463, tid: 31463 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31463, switch_out: 1 } cpu: 3, pid: 31463, tid: 31527 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31527, switch_out: 1 } cpu: 1, pid: 31463, tid: 31463 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31463, switch_out: 0 } ^CTraceback (most recent call last): File "tools/perf/python/twatch.py", line 67, in main(context_switch = 1, thread = 31463) File "tools/perf/python/twatch.py", line 40, in main evlist.poll(timeout = -1) KeyboardInterrupt [root@zoo linux]# Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Guy Streeter Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Stephane Eranian Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-1ukistmpamc5z717k80ctcp2@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf python: Add missing PERF_RECORD_{MMAP2,AUX,etc}

2015-07-29T13:51:45Z

Those were added to the kernel and tooling but we forgot to expose them via the python binding, fix it.

perf tools: Add reference counting for thread_map object

2015-06-25T18:15:50Z

Adding reference counting for thread_map object, so it could be easily shared among other objects. Using thread_map__put instead thread_map__delete and making thread_map__delete static.

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 evlist: Introduce poll method for common code idiom

2014-09-25T19:46:55Z

Since we have access two evlist members in all these poll calls, provide a helper. This will also help to make the patch introducing the pollfd class more clear, as the evlist specific uses will be hiden away perf_evlist__poll().

perf tools: Factor eprintf to allow different debug variables

This way we can easily reuse current debug functions for another debug variables other than verbose.

perf evlist: Introduce evlist__for_each() & friends

2014-01-13T13:06:25Z

For the common evsel list traversal, so that it becomes more compact. Use the opportunity to start ditching the 'perf_' from 'perf_evlist__', as discussed, as the whole conversion touches a lot of places, lets do it piecemeal when we have the chance due to other work, like in this case.
