perf options: Check v type in OPT_U?INTEGER

2010-05-17T18:43:38+00:00

To avoid problems like the one fixed by Stephane Eranian in 3de29ca, now
we'll got this instead:

	bench/sched-messaging.c:259: error: negative width in bit-field ‘’
	bench/sched-messaging.c:261: error: negative width in bit-field ‘’

Which is rather cryptic, but is how BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO works, so kernel
hackers should be already used to this.

With it in place found some problems, fixed by changing the affected
variables to sensible types or changed some OPT_INTEGER to OPT_UINTEGER.

Next csets will go thru converting each of the remaining OPT_ so that
review can be made easier by grouping changes per type per patch.

perf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce OPT_INCR()

2010-04-14T09:26:44+00:00

Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a
bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the
manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and
incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a
PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool
and would therefore print out the usage information and
terminate.

This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool
datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was
intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was
passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR
with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is
currently the only such example of this).

I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true
C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that
they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to
bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints.
The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses
OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN.

perf sched: Fix build failure on sparc

2009-12-14T07:59:12+00:00

Here, tvec->tv_usec is "unsigned int" not "unsigned long".

Since the type is different on every platform, it's probably
best to just use long printf formats and cast.

perf bench: Add "all" pseudo subsystem and "all" pseudo suite

2009-12-14T07:51:19+00:00

This patch adds a new "all" pseudo subsystem and an "all" pseudo
suite. These are for testing all subsystem and its all suite, or
all suite of one subsystem.

(This patch also contains a few trivial comment fixes for
bench/* and output style fixes. I judged that there are no
necessity to make them into individual patch.)

Example of use:

| % ./perf bench sched all                      # Test all suites of sched subsystem
| # Running sched/messaging benchmark...
| # 20 sender and receiver processes per group
| # 10 groups == 400 processes run
|
|      Total time: 0.414 [sec]
|
| # Running sched/pipe benchmark...
| # Extecuted 1000000 pipe operations between two tasks

perf bench: Make the mem/memcpy tests more user-friendly

2009-11-22T08:41:06+00:00

mem-memcpy.c uses perf event system calls to obtain CPU clocks.
And it suddenly dies with BUG_ON() when it running on Linux
doesn't support perf event.

Also fail at calloc() can occur easily when too large
length is passed. Fail of calloc() causes sudden death
with assert().

These behaviours are not friendly. So I fixed the treating of
errors.
