- Update AMD IBS event error message since it now support per-process
profiling but no priviledge filters.
$ sudo perf record -e ibs_op//k -C 0
Error:
AMD IBS doesn't support privilege filtering. Try again without
the privilege modifiers (like 'k') at the end.
- Add --output option to save the data to a file not to be interfered
by other debug messages.
Test:
- Fix event parsing test on ARM where there's no raw PMU nor supports
PERF_PMU_CAP_EXTENDED_HW_TYPE.
- Update the lock contention test case for CSV output.
- Fix a segfault in the daemon command test.
Vendor events (JSON):
- Add has_event() to check if the given event is available on system
at runtime. On Intel machines, some transaction events may not be
present when TSC extensions are disabled.
- Update Intel event metrics.
Misc:
- Sort symbols by name using an external array of pointers instead of
a rbtree node in the symbol. This will save 16-bytes or 24-bytes
per symbol whether the sorting is actually requested or not.
- Fix unwinding DWARF callstacks using libdw when --symfs option is
used"
