perf report: Don't allow empty argument for '-t'.

2015-03-19T16:53:28Z

Without this patch, perf report cause segfault if pass "" as '-t': $ perf report -t "" # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options. # # Samples: 37 of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_write' # Event count (approx.): 37 # # Children SelfCommand Shared Object Symbol Segmentation fault Since -t is used to add field-separator for generate table, -t "" is actually meanless. This patch defines a new OPT_STRING_NOEMPTY() option generator to ensure user never pass empty string to that option.

perf tools: Show single option when failed to parse

2013-11-04T15:51:45Z

Current option parser outputs whole option help string when it failed to parse an option. However this is not good for user if the command has many option, she might feel hard which one is related easily. Fix it by just showing the help message of the given option only.

perf options: Type check all the remaining OPT_ variants

2010-05-17T19:22:41Z

OPT_SET_INT was renamed to OPT_SET_UINT since the only use in these tools is to set something that has an enum type, that is builtin compatible with unsigned int. Several string constifications were done to make OPT_STRING require a const char * type.
