perf ui/tui: Show fatal error message only if exists

2015-01-22T20:05:10Z

When perf exits with some error it shows the error message with ui__error() or ui__warning() and then calls ui__exit() during exit_browser(). On TUI, it then shows a window titled "Fatal Error" to inform user a last message which might be related with this condition. However it sometimes contains no message and just annoyes users. The usual case for this is running perf top as normal user. (And /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid being 1).

perf ui/tui: Print backtrace symbols when segfault occurs

2014-12-23T15:05:59Z

The output will look like below. (I added an error into ui__init() for the test). $ perf report perf: Segmentation fault -------- backtrace -------- perf[0x503781] /usr/lib/libc.so.6(+0x33b20)[0x7f1a14f04b20] perf(ui__init+0xd5)[0x503645] perf(setup_browser+0x97)[0x4ce4e7] perf(cmd_report+0xcea)[0x4392ba] perf[0x428493] perf(main+0x60a)[0x427c0a] /usr/lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf0)[0x7f1a14ef1040] perf[0x427d29] [0x0] Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: David Ahern Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1419223455-4362-4-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf ui: Rename ui_progress to ui_progress_ops

2013-10-23T17:41:23Z

Reserving 'struct ui_progress' to the per progress instances, not to the particular set of operations used to implmenet a progress bar in the current UI (GTK, TUI, etc).

perf tools: Remove dependency on libnewt

2013-04-01T15:23:21Z

Now that the map browser shares the input routine with the hists browser, there is no need for using any libnewt routine, so remove all traces except for honouring NO_NEWT=1 on the makefile command line as an indication that TUI support is not needed, in fact it just sets NO_SLANG=1.

perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variables

2012-09-11T15:19:15Z

perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

perf hists browser: Use perf_hpp__format functions

2012-09-08T16:20:13Z

Override hpp->color functions for TUI. Because line coloring is done outside of the function, it just sets the percent value and pass it.

perf ui gtk: Add perf_gtk__show_helpline() for pr_*

If gtk2 support is not enabled (or failed for some reason) try TUI again instead of falling directly back to the stdio interface.
