[PATCH 7/7] perf data: Fix signess of value

From: Jiri Olsa
Date: Sat Apr 18 2015 - 11:51:17 EST


From: Wang Nan <wangnan0@xxxxxxxxxx>

When converting int values, perf first extractes it to a ulonglong, then
feeds it to babeltrace as a signed value. For negative 32 bit values
(for example, return values of failed syscalls), the extracted data
should be something like 0xfffffffe (-2). It becomes a large int64
value. Babeltrace denies to insert it with
bt_ctf_field_signed_integer_set_value() because it is larger than
0x7fffffff, the largest positive value a signed 32 bit int can be.

This patch introduces adjust_signess(), which fills high bits of
ulonglong with 1 if the value is negative.
