perf subcmd: Create subcmd library

2015-12-17T17:27:14Z

Move the subcommand-related files from perf to a new library named libsubcmd.a. Since we're moving files anyway, go ahead and rename 'exec_cmd.*' to 'exec-cmd.*' to be consistent with the naming of all the other files.

perf tools: Finalize subcmd independence

2015-12-17T17:27:10Z

For the files that will be moved to the subcmd library, remove all their perf-specific includes and duplicate any needed functionality.

perf tools: Remove subcmd dependencies on strbuf

2015-12-17T00:33:13Z

Introduce and use new astrcat() and astrcatf() functions which replace the strbuf functionality for subcmd. For now they duplicate strbuf's die-on-allocation-error policy.

perf tools: Provide subcmd configuration at runtime

2015-12-16T19:18:16Z

Create init functions for exec_cmd.c and pager.c. This allows their configuration to be specified at runtime so they can be split out into a separate library which can be used by other programs. Their configuration is stored in a shared subcmd_config struct.

perf tools: Make options always available, even if required libs not linked

2015-12-14T15:57:32Z

This patch keeps options of perf builtins same in all conditions. If one option is disabled because of compiling options, users should be notified. Masami suggested another implementation in [1] that, by adding a OPTION_NEXT_DEPENDS option before those options in the 'struct option' array, options parser knows an option is disabled. However, in some cases this array is reordered (options__order()). In addition, in parse-option.c that array is const, so we can't simply merge information in decorator option into the affacted option. This patch chooses a simpler implementation that, introducing a set_option_nobuild() function and two option parsing flags. Builtins with such options should call set_option_nobuild() before option parsing. The complexity of this patch is because we want some of options can be skipped safely. In this case their arguments should also be consumed. Options in 'perf record' and 'perf probe' are fixed in this patch.

perf tools: Save cmdline arguments earlier

2015-12-09T16:42:03Z

perf_env__set_cmdline() only saves the arguments the first time it's called. It doesn't need to be called every time the options and suboptions are parsed. Instead it can just be called once. This also has the advantage of making the option parsing code less perf-specific so it can be moved out to a library.

perf tools: Search for more options when passing args to -h

2015-10-27T20:35:58Z

Recently 'perf -h' was made aware of arguments and would show just the help for the arguments specified, but that required a strict form, i.e.: $ perf -h --tui worked, but: $ perf -h tui didn't. Make it support both cases and also look at the option help when neither matches, so that he following examples works: $ perf report -h interface Usage: perf report [] --gtk Use the GTK2 interface --stdio Use the stdio interface --tui Use the TUI interface $ perf report -h stack Usage: perf report [] -g, --call-graph Display call graph (stack chain/backtrace): print_type: call graph printing style (graph|flat|fractal|none) threshold: minimum call graph inclusion threshold () print_limit: maximum number of call graph entry () order: call graph order (caller|callee) sort_key: call graph sort key (function|address) branch: include last branch info to call graph (branch) Default: graph,0.5,caller,function --max-stack Set the maximum stack depth when parsing the callchain, anything beyond the specified depth will be ignored.

perf tools: Introduce usage_with_options_msg()

2015-10-27T12:28:44Z

Now usage_with_options() setup a pager before printing message so normal printf() or pr_err() will not be shown. The usage_with_options_msg() can be used to print some help message before usage strings.
