Subject: [PATCH v2 13/14] perf, persistent: Exposing persistent events using sysfs
Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2013 18:42:39 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1370968960-22527-14-git-send-email-rric@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1370968960-22527-1-git-send-email-rric@kernel.org>
From: Robert Richter <robert.richter@linaro.org>
Expose persistent events in the system to userland using sysfs. Perf
tools are able to read existing pmu events from sysfs. Now we use a
persistent pmu as an event container containing all registered
persistent events of the system. This patch adds dynamically
registration of persistent events to sysfs. E.g. something like this:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/persistent/events/mce_record:persistent,config=106
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/persistent/format/persistent:attr5:23
Perf tools need to support the attr<num> syntax that is added in a
separate patch set. With it we are able to run perf tool commands to
read persistent events, e.g.:
# perf record -e persistent/mce_record/ sleep 10
# perf top -e persistent/mce_record/
[ Document attr<index> syntax in sysfs ABI ]
