[GIT PULL 00/27] perf tools: filtering events using eBPF programs

From: Wang Nan
Date: Sun Sep 06 2015 - 03:16:10 EST


(I forget to CC mailing list when sending previous pull req. Sorry for the noisy.)

Hi Arnaldo,


I rebased my code on your perf/core and send a new pull request. You
can find main changes in the tag message. The most biggest changes
are the resesigning of dummy placeholder and the new testcase for BPF
prologue. They are patch 10, patch 11, patch 26 and patch 27. Please
have a look at them.

The following changes since commit 0959e527b1593e662cb99639a587eac39ea1232d:

perf stat: Move sw clock metrics printout to stat-shadow (2015-09-04 20:30:01 -0300)

perf test: Test BPF prologue (2015-09-06 06:10:12 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
BPF related bugfix and improve

1. Enforce the assumption that event parser never return empty list.

2. Reuse code and API from kernel's regs_query_register_offset().

3. Totally redesign dummy placeholder. Reuse existing dummy event instead
of creating a new one.

4. Introduce new testcases, test LLVM kbuild searching and BPF prologue.

5. Adding a missing '!' in add_perf_probe_events.

6. Use new API ({convert,apply,cleanup}_perf_probe_events) to probe events.
(while fix a bug that non-root user can't trace non-BPF events, like cycles)
