Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo b0ad8ea664 perf tools: Remove unused 'prefix' from builtin functions
We got it from the git sources but never used it for anything, with the
place where this would be somehow used remaining:

  static int run_builtin(struct cmd_struct *p, int argc, const char **argv)
  {
	prefix = NULL;
	if (p->option & RUN_SETUP)
		prefix = NULL; /* setup_perf_directory(); */

Ditch it.

Andi Kleen bf874fcf9f perf list: Move extra details printing to new option
Move the printing of perf expressions and internal events to a new
clearer --details flag, instead of lumping it together with other debug
options in --debug. This makes it clearer to use.

Before

  perf list --debug
  ...
  unc_m_power_critical_throttle_cycles
         [Cycles all ranks are in critical thermal throttle. Unit: uncore_imc]
          uncore_imc_2/event=0x86/  MetricName: power_critical_throttle_cycles % MetricExpr: (unc_m_power_critical_throttle_cycles / unc_m_clockticks) * 100.

after

  perf list --details
  ...
  unc_m_power_critical_throttle_cycles
         [Cycles all ranks are in critical thermal throttle. Unit: uncore_imc]
          uncore_imc_2/event=0x86/  MetricName: power_critical_throttle_cycles % MetricExpr: (unc_m_power_critical_throttle_cycles / unc_m_clockticks) * 100.

Andi Kleen f23610245c perf list: Add debug support for outputing alias string
For debugging and testing it is useful to see the converted alias
string. Add support to perf stat/record and perf list to print the alias
conversion. The text string is saved in the alias structure.  For perf
stat/record it is folded into the normal -v. For perf list -v was taken,
so we use --debug.

  l1d_pend_miss.fb_full
       [Cycles a demand request was blocked due to Fill Buffers inavailability]

Sukadev Bhattiprolu c8d6828a65 perf list: Support long jevents descriptions
Previously we were dropping the useful longer descriptions that some
events have in the event list completely. This patch makes them appear with
perf list.

Old perf list:

baclears:
  baclears.all
       [Counts the number of baclears]

vs new:

perf list -v:
...
baclears:
  baclears.all
       [The BACLEARS event counts the number of times the front end is
        resteered, mainly when the Branch Prediction Unit cannot provide
        a correct prediction and this is corrected by the Branch Address
        Calculator at the front end. The BACLEARS.ANY event counts the
        number of baclears for any type of branch]

Andi Kleen 1c5f01fe86 perf list: Add a --no-desc flag
Add a --no-desc flag to 'perf list' to not print the event descriptions
that were earlier added for JSON events. This may be useful to get a
less crowded listing.

It's still default to print descriptions as that is the more useful
default for most users.

Josh Poimboeuf 4b6ab94eab perf subcmd: Create subcmd library
Move the subcommand-related files from perf to a new library named
libsubcmd.a.

Since we're moving files anyway, go ahead and rename 'exec_cmd.*' to
'exec-cmd.*' to be consistent with the naming of all the other files.

Yunlong Song 5ef803ee02 perf list: Extend raw-dump to certain kind of events
Extend 'perf list --raw-dump' to 'perf list --raw-dump [hw|sw|cache
|tracepoint|pmu|event_glob]' in order to show the raw-dump of a certain
kind of events rather than all of the events.

Example:

Before this patch:

 $ perf list --raw-dump hw
 branch-instructions branch-misses bus-cycles cache-misses
 cache-references cpu-cycles instructions stalled-cycles-backend
 stalled-cycles-frontend
 alignment-faults context-switches cpu-clock cpu-migrations
 emulation-faults major-faults minor-faults page-faults task-clock
 ...
 ...
 writeback:writeback_thread_start writeback:writeback_thread_stop
 writeback:writeback_wait_iff_congested
 writeback:writeback_wake_background writeback:writeback_wake_thread

As shown above, all of the events are printed.

After this patch:

 $ perf list --raw-dump hw
 branch-instructions branch-misses bus-cycles cache-misses
 cache-references cpu-cycles instructions stalled-cycles-backend
 stalled-cycles-frontend

As shown above, only the hw events are printed.

Yunlong Song 161149513b perf list: Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix
If somebody happens to name an event with the beginning of 'tracepoint'
(e.g. tracepoint_foo), then it will never be showed with perf list
event_glob, thus we parse the argument 'tracepoint' more carefully for
accuracy.

Example:

Before this patch:

 $ perf list tracepoint_foo:*

   jbd2:jbd2_start_commit                             [Tracepoint event]
   jbd2:jbd2_commit_locking                           [Tracepoint event]
   jbd2:jbd2_run_stats                                [Tracepoint event]
   block:block_rq_issue                               [Tracepoint event]
   block:block_bio_complete                           [Tracepoint event]
   block:block_bio_backmerge                          [Tracepoint event]
   block:block_getrq                                  [Tracepoint event]
   ...                                                ...

As shown above, all of the tracepoint events are printed. In fact, the
command's real intention is to print the events of tracepoint_foo.

After this patch:

 $ perf list tracepoint_foo:*

   tracepoint_foo:tp_foo_enter                        [Tracepoint event]
   tracepoint_foo:tp_foo_exit                         [Tracepoint event]

As shown above, only the events of tracepoint_foo are printed.

David Ahern 44d742e01e perf list: Add usage
Currently 'perf list' is not very helpful if you forget the syntax:

  $ perf list -h

  List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

After:
  $ perf list -h

   usage: perf list [hw|sw|cache|tracepoint|pmu|event_glob]

Irina Tirdea 1d037ca164 perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variables
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking
unused variables. The variable __used is defined to
__attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to
__attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is
also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning:
'__used__' attribute ignored

__unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition.
If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to
conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name
in its headers.

The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the
kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one
definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the
same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android.
This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with
__maybe_unused.

Frederic Weisbecker a3277d2d5a perf tools: Support for events bash completion
Add basic bash completion for the -e option in record, top and stat
subcommands. Only hardware, software and tracepoint events are
supported.

Breakpoints, raw events and events grouping completion need more
thinking.

Enable -Wextra. This found a few real bugs plus a number
of signed/unsigned type mismatches/uncleanlinesses. It
also required a few annotations

All things considered it was still worth it so lets try with
this enabled for now.
