perf record: Enable arbitrary event names thru name= modifier
Enable complex event names containing [.:=,] symbols to be encoded into Perf trace using name= modifier e.g. like this: perf record -e cpu/name=\'OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM\',\ period=0x3567e0,event=0x3c,cmask=0x1/Duk ./futex Below is how it looks like in the report output. Please note explicit escaped quoting at cmdline string in the header so that thestring can be directly reused for another collection in shell: perf report --header # ======== ... # cmdline : /root/abudanko/kernel/tip/tools/perf/perf record -v -e cpu/name=\'OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM\',period=0x3567e0,event=0x3c,cmask=0x1/Duk ./futex # event : name = OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM, , type = 4, size = 112, config = 0x100003c, { sample_period, sample_freq } = 3500000, sample_type = IP|TID|TIME, disabled = 1, inh ... # ======== # # # Total Lost Samples: 0 # # Samples: 24K of event 'OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM' # Event count (approx.): 86492000000 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ....... ................ .............................................. # 14.75% futex [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __entry_trampoline_start ... perf stat -e cpu/name=\'CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD:cmask=0x1\',period=0x3567e0,event=0x3c,cmask=0x1/Duk ./futex 10000000 process context switches in 16678890291ns (1667.9ns/ctxsw) Performance counter stats for './futex': 88,095,770,571 CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD:cmask=0x1 16.679542407 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Alexey Budankov <alexey.budankov@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/c194b060-761d-0d50-3b21-bb4ed680002d@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
