2017-08-22perf tools: Expression parser enhancements for metricsAndi Kleen
Enhance the expression parser for more complex metric formulas. - Support python style IF ELSE operators - Add an #SMT_On magic variable for formulas that depend on the SMT status. Example: 4 *( CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD_ANY / 2 ) if #SMT_on else cycles - Support MIN/MAX operations Example: min(1 , IDQ.MITE_UOPS / ( UPI * 16 * ( ICACHE.HIT + ICACHE.MISSES ) / 4.0 ) ) This is useful to fix up problems caused by multiplexing. - Support | & ^ operators - Minor cleanups and fixes - Support an \ escape for operators. This allows to specify event names like c2-residency - Support @ as an alternative for / to be able to specify pmus without conflicts with operators (like msr/tsc/ as msr@tsc@) Example: (cstate_core@c3\\-residency@ / msr@tsc@) * 100 Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170811232634.30465-8-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2017-08-11perf test: Add 'struct test *' to the test functionsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
This way we'll be able to pass more test specific parameters without having to change this function signature. Will be used by the upcoming 'shell tests', shell scripts that will call perf tools and check if they work as expected, comparing its effects on the system (think 'perf probe foo') the output produced, etc. Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Michael Petlan <mpetlan@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Thomas Richter <tmricht@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-wq250w7j1opbzyiynozuajbl@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2017-03-23perf tools: Add a simple expression parser for JSONAndi Kleen
Add a simple expression parser good enough to parse JSON relation expressions. The parser is implemented using bison. This is just intended as an simple parser for internal usage in the event lists, not the beginning of a "perf scripting language" v2: Use expr__ prefix instead of expr_ Support multiple free variables for parser Committer note: The v2 patch had: %define api.pure full In expr.y, that is a feature introduced in bison 2.7, to have reentrant parsers, not using global variables, which would make tools/perf stop building with the bison version shipped in older distros, so Andi realised that the other parsers (e.g. parse-events.y) were using: %pure-parser Which is present in older versions of bison and fits the bill. I added: CFLAGS_expr-bison.o += -DYYENABLE_NLS=0 -DYYLTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL=0 -w To finally make it build, copying what was there for pmu-bison.o, another parser.
