SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
-'perf script' [--dlfilter file.so ]
+'perf script' [--dlfilter file.so ] [ --dlarg arg ]...
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This option is used to process data through a custom filter provided by a
-dynamically loaded shared object file.
+dynamically loaded shared object file. Arguments can be passed using --dlarg
+and retrieved using perf_dlfilter_fns.args().
If 'file.so' does not contain "/", then it will be found either in the current
directory, or perf tools exec path which is ~/libexec/perf-core/dlfilters for
struct perf_dlfilter_fns {
const struct perf_dlfilter_al *(*resolve_ip)(void *ctx);
const struct perf_dlfilter_al *(*resolve_addr)(void *ctx);
- void *(*reserved[126])(void *);
+ char **(*args)(void *ctx, int *dlargc);
+ void *(*reserved[125])(void *);
};
----
'resolve_addr' returns information about addr (if addr_correlates_sym).
+'args' returns arguments from --dlarg options.
+
The perf_dlfilter_al structure
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Filter sample events using the given shared object file.
Refer linkperf:perf-dlfilter[1]
+--dlarg=<arg>::
+ Pass 'arg' as an argument to the dlfilter. --dlarg may be repeated
+ to add more arguments.
+
--list-dlfilters=::
Display a list of available dlfilters. Use with option -v (must come
before option --list-dlfilters) to show long descriptions.
