[PATCH v2] perf script: improve validation of sample attributes for output fields

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Check for required sample attributes using evsel rather than sample_type in
the session header. If the attribute for a default field is not present
for the event type (e.g., new command operating on file from older kernel)
the field is removed from the output list.

Expected event types must exist. For example, if a user specifies

  -f trace:time,trace -f sw:time,cpu,sym

the perf.data file must contain both tracepoints and software events
(ie., it is an error if either does not exist in the file).

Attribute checking is done once at the beginning of perf-script rather than
for each sample.

v1 -> v2:
