perf tools: Move the prototypes in util/string.h to util.h

2010-04-03T13:19:26Z

So that we avoid conflict with libc's string.h header. Reviewed-by: KOSAKI Motohiro Suggested-by: KOSAKI Motohiro Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Paul Mackerras Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf symbols: Move hex2u64 and strxfrchar to symbol.c

2010-03-26T07:52:59Z

Mostly used in symbol.c so move them there to reduce the number of files needed to use the symbol system. Also do some header adjustments with the same intent.

perf probe: Add lazy line matching support

2010-02-25T16:49:30Z

Add lazy line matching support for specifying new probes. This also changes the syntax of perf probe a bit. Now perf probe accepts one of below probe event definitions. 1) Define event based on function name [EVENT=]FUNC[@SRC][:RLN|+OFF|%return|;PTN] [ARG ...] 2) Define event based on source file with line number [EVENT=]SRC:ALN [ARG ...] 3) Define event based on source file with lazy pattern [EVENT=]SRC;PTN [ARG ...] - New lazy matching pattern(PTN) follows ';' (semicolon). And it must be put the end of the definition. - So, @SRC is no longer the part which must be put at the end of the definition. Note that ';' (semicolon) can be interpreted as the end of a command by the shell. This means that you need to quote it. (anyway you will need to quote the lazy pattern itself too, because it may contains other sensitive characters, like '[',']' etc.). Lazy matching ------------- The lazy line matching is similar to glob matching except ignoring spaces in both of pattern and target. e.g. 'a=*' can matches 'a=b', 'a = b', 'a == b' and so on. This provides some sort of flexibility and robustness to probe point definitions against minor code changes. (for example, actual 10th line of schedule() can be changed easily by modifying schedule(), but the same line matching 'rq=cpu_rq*' may still exist.) Changes in v3: - Cast Dwarf_Addr to uintmax_t for printf-formats. Changes in v2: - Cast Dwarf_Addr to unsigned long long for printf-formats.

perf probe: Add glob matching support on --del

2009-12-15T19:22:03Z

Add glob-expression matching support on --del option. You can use wildcards for specifying deleting events. e.g. Clear all probe events: # perf probe --del '*' Clear probes on schedule(): # perf probe --del 'schedule*' Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Jim Keniston Cc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli Cc: Christoph Hellwig Cc: Frank Ch.

perf tools: Add new perf_atoll() function to parse string representing size in bytes

2009-11-15T13:54:23Z

This patch modifies util/string.[ch] to add new function: perf_atoll() to parse string representing size in bytes. This function parses (\d+)(b|B|kb|KB|mb|MB|gb|GB) (e.g. "256MB") and returns its numeric value.
