From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Thu Jul 18 2013 - 06:36:24 EST


Hi

Here are some fixes and tweaks to perf tools (version 8).

Changes in V8:
perf tools: add debug prints
Fixed Python link errors
perf tools: move perf_evlist__config() to a new source file
New Patch to avoid Python link errors
perf tools: add support for PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTFIER
Adjustments due to patch above

Changes in V7:
perf: Update perf_event_type documentation
Proposed new patch from Peter Zijlstra
perf: make events stream always parsable
Adjustments due to patch above
perf tools: tidy up sample parsing overflow checking
Change to a single overflow function
Amend comment
perf tools: add a function to calculate sample event size
New patch
perf tools: add a sample parsing test
Amended to use sample event size calculation

Changes in V6:
Some checkpatch fixes

perf: make events stream always parsable
Add sample format comments

Changes in V5:
Re-based to Arnaldo's tree and dropped already applied patches:
perf tools: remove unused parameter
perf tools: fix missing tool parameter
perf tools: fix missing 'finished_round'
perf tools: fix parse_events_terms() segfault on error path
perf tools: fix new_term() missing free on error path
perf tools: add const specifier to perf_pmu__find name parameter
perf tools: tidy duplicated munmap code
perf tools: validate perf event header size

perf tools: add debug prints
Changed to perf_event_attr__fprintf()
perf tools: add pid to struct thread
Always set the pid, even if a pid is already set
perf tools: change machine__findnew_thread() to set thread pid
Replaces: perf tools: change "machine" functions to set thread pid
perf tools: add support for PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTFIER
Only use PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTFIER if sample types are different
perf tools: expand perf_event__synthesize_sample()
New patch in preparation of a sample parsing test
perf tools: add a sample parsing test
New patch

Changes in V4:
I added kernel support for matching sample types via
PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER. perf tools support for that required
first fixing some other things.

perf tools: fix parse_events_terms() freeing local variable on error path
Dropped - covered by David Ahern
perf tools: struct thread has a tid not a pid
Added ack by David Ahern
perf tools: add pid to struct thread
Remove unused function
perf tools: fix missing increment in sample parsing
New patch
perf tools: tidy up sample parsing overflow checking
New patch
perf tools: remove unnecessary callchain validation
New patch
perf tools: remove references to struct ip_event
New patch
perf tools: move struct ip_event
New patch
perf: make events stream always parsable
New patch
perf tools: add support for PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTFIER
New patch

Changes in V3:
perf tools: add pid to struct thread
Split into 2 patches
perf tools: fix ppid in thread__fork()
Dropped for now

Changes in V2:
perf tools: fix missing tool parameter
Fixed one extra occurrence
perf tools: fix parse_events_terms() freeing local variable on error path
Made "freeing" code into a new function
perf tools: validate perf event header size
Corrected byte-swapping
perf tools: allow non-matching sample types
Added comments
Fixed id_pos calculation
id_pos/is_pos updated whenever sample_type changes
Removed perf_evlist__sample_type()
Added __perf_evlist__combined_sample_type()
Added perf_evlist__combined_sample_type()
Added perf_evlist__make_sample_types_compatible()
Added ack's to patches acked by Jiri Olsa
