2009-07-22 | perf_counter: Detect debugfs location | Jason Baron | |
If "/sys/kernel/debug" is not a debugfs mount point, search for the debugfs filesystem in /proc/mounts, but also allows the user to specify '--debugfs-dir=blah' or set the environment variable: 'PERF_DEBUGFS_DIR' Signed-off-by: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> [ also made it probe "/debug" by default ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <20090721181629.GA3094@redhat.com> | |||

2009-06-19 | perf_counter tools: Define and use our own u64, s64 etc. definitions | Paul Mackerras | |
On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than unsigned long long. This causes compiler warnings every time we print a __u64 value with %Lx. Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long. For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8. These definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h. The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8} to remove the "__". The other changes are: * Create types.h * Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h * Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile * Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table() to kill two remaining warnings.

2009-06-06 | perf_counter tools: Move from Documentation/perf_counter/ to tools/perf/ | Ingo Molnar | |
Several people have suggested that 'perf' has become a full-fledged tool that should be moved out of Documentation/. Move it to the (new) tools/ directory.
