From 9215545e99d8c0b27323df2de504f4294bf5e407 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Zanussi Date: Thu, 1 Apr 2010 23:59:21 -0500 Subject: perf: Convert perf tracing data into a tracing_data event Bypasses the tracing_data perf header code and replaces it with a synthesized event and processing function that accomplishes the same thing, used when reading/writing perf data to/from a pipe. The tracing data is pretty large, and this patch doesn't attempt to break it down into component events. The tracing_data event itself doesn't actually contain the tracing data, rather it arranges for the event processing code to skip over it after it's read, using the skip return value added to the event processing loop in a previous patch.

It happily records the TRACE_INFO even if SAMPLE_RAW is used without tracepoints, but when the perf data is read it won't go any further when it finds TRACE_INFO but no tracepoints, and displays misleading errors. This adds a check for both in perf-record, and won't record TRACE_INFO unless both are true. This at least allows perf report -D to dump raw events, and avoids triggering a misleading error condition in perf trace. It doesn't actually enable the non-tracepoint raw events to be displayed in perf trace, since perf trace currently only deals with tracepoint events.

First, there's no need to use get_tracepoints_path() in have_tracepoints() - we really just want the part that checks whether any attributes correspondo to tracepoints. Second, we really don't care about raw_samples per se - tracepoints are always raw_samples. In any case, the have_tracepoints() check should be sufficient to decide whether or not to write TRACE_INFO.
