2013-11-12perf trace: Add summary only optionDavid Ahern
Per request from Pekka make --summary a summary only option meaning do not show the individual system calls. Add another option to see all syscalls along with the summary. In addition use 's' and 'S' as shortcuts for the options.

2013-10-16perf trace: Use vfs_getname hook if availableArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Initially it tries to find a probe:vfs_getname that should be setup with: perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:65 pathname=result->name:string' or with slight changes to cope with code flux in the getname_flags code. In the future, if a "vfs:getname" tracepoint becomes available, then it will be preferred. This is not strictly required and more expensive method of reading the /proc/pid/fd/ symlink will be used when the fd->path array entry is not populated by a previous vfs_getname + open syscall ret sequence. As with any other 'perf probe' probe the setup must be done just once and the probe will be left inactive, waiting for users, be it 'perf trace' of any other tool.

2012-09-26perf trace: New toolArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Initially should look loosely like the venerable 'strace' tool, but using the infrastructure in the perf tools to allow tracing extra targets: [acme@sandy linux]$ perf trace --hell Error: unknown option `hell' usage: perf trace <PID> -p, --pid <pid> trace events on existing process id --tid <tid> trace events on existing thread id --all-cpus system-wide collection from all CPUs --cpu <cpu> list of cpus to monitor --no-inherit child tasks do not inherit counters --mmap-pages <n> number of mmap data pages --uid <user> user to profile [acme@sandy linux]$ Those should have the same semantics as when using with 'perf record'. It gets stuck sometimes, but hey, it works sometimes too! In time it should support perf.data based workloads, i.e. it should have a: -o filename Command line option that will produce a perf.data file that can then be used with 'perf trace' or any of the other perf tools (script, report, etc). It will also eventually have the set of functionalities described in the previous 'trace' prototype by Thomas Gleixner: "Announcing a new utility: 'trace'" http://lwn.net/Articles/415728/ Also planned is to have some of the features suggested in the comments of that LWN article.

2010-02-23perf/scripts: Fix supported language listing optionTom Zanussi
'perf trace -s list' prints a list of the supported scripting languages. One problem with it is that it falls through and prints the trace as well. The use of 'list' for this also makes it easy to confuse with 'perf trace -l', used for listing available scripts. So change 'perf trace -s list' to 'perf trace -s lang' and fixes the fall-through problem.

2009-09-13perf: Add 'perf sched' toolIngo Molnar
This turn-key tool allows scheduler measurements to be conducted and the results be displayed numerically. First baby step towards that goal: clone the new command off of perf trace. Fix a few other details along the way: - add (minimal) perf trace documentation - reorder a few places - list perf trace in the mainporcelain list as well as it's a very useful utility.
