From 15bfd2cc107a9971ac8aeb4b7724ced581a2ed30 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wang Nan Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2015 07:36:09 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] perf record: Apply filter to all events in a glob matching There is an old problem in perf's filter applying which first posted at Sep. 2014 at https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/9/944 that, if passing multiple events in a glob matching expression in cmdline then add '--filter' after them, the filter will be applied on only the last one. For example: # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null & [1] 464 # perf record -a -e 'syscalls:sys_*_read' --filter 'common_pid != 464' sleep 0.1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.239 MB perf.data (2094 samples) ] # perf report --stdio | tee ... # Samples: 2K of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_read' # Event count (approx.): 2092 ... # Samples: 2 of event 'syscalls:sys_exit_read' # Event count (approx.): 2 ... In this example, filter only applied on 'syscalls:sys_exit_read', and there's no way to set filter for ''syscalls:sys_enter_read'. This patch adds a 'cmdline_group_boundary' for 'struct evsel', and apply filter on all events between two boundary marks. After applying this patch: # perf record -a -e 'syscalls:sys_*_read' --filter 'common_pid != 464' sleep 0.1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.031 MB perf.data (3 samples) ] # perf report --stdio | tee ... # Samples: 1 of event 'syscalls:sys_enter_read' # Event count (approx.): 1 ... # Samples: 2 of event 'syscalls:sys_exit_read' # Event count (approx.): 2 ...
