Subject: [PATCH 1/2] tools/perf: Add utility function to read /proc/cpuinfo for any field
Date: Thu, 28 Apr 2022 20:38:28 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220428150829.30733-2-atrajeev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220428150829.30733-1-atrajeev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
/proc/cpuinfo provides information about type of processor, number
of CPU's etc. Reading /proc/cpuinfo file outputs useful information
by field name like cpu, platform, model (depending on architecture)
and its value separated by colon.
Add new utility function "cpuinfo_field" in "util/header.c" which
accepts field name as input string to search in /proc/cpuinfo content.
This returns the first matching value as resulting string. Example,
calling the function "cpuinfo_field(platform)" in powerpc returns
the platform value. This can be used to fetch processor information
from "cpuinfo" by other utilities/testcases.
