Also perf configs can't be changed without manually modifying $HOME/.perfconfig or $(sysconfdir)/perfconfig file. So I suggest this patchset of the perf-config command which can list, get, set, remove perf configs or list with default config values as below. Changes in v10: - Split perf-config.txt into several patches for each section and replace some paragraphes with better proper things as suggested by Arnaldo and Namhyung (PATCH v10 2~15/22) - Correct wrong default values for each variable as suggested by Namhyung (PATCH v10 18/22) - Remove the compare name function. Changes in v9: - Add the compare name functionality treating '-' and '-' as being the same thing for usability (PATCH v9 4/9) Changes in v8: - Correct small typing errors in a perf-config documention (PATCH v8 1/8) - Split the collecting configs part into a separate patch (PATCH v8 3/8) - Use new enum and struct for default configs instead of hard-coded value as suggested by Namhyung (PATCH v8 4/8) Changes in v7: - Modify explanations of syntax and options(color, gtk, tui, buildid, annotate) to be better proper descriptions as suggested by Arnaldo (PATCH v7 1/7) Changes in v6: - Split a 'set' feature patch into two patch to separate normalize_value() from it. (PATCH v6 5/7, PATCH v6 6/7) - Bug fix : 'remove' and 'set' malfunctions when without a specific file-option. (If file-option isn't used, 'remove' feature had to use both user and system config file and 'set' feature had to only handle user config file.) (PATCH v6 5/7, PATCH v6 7/7) Changes in v5: - Simplify the switch statement in cmd_config() - Set a config file path with '--system' or '--user' instead of '--global' or '--system' as suggested by Namhyung. (PATCH v5 2/6) - The patch about 'get' and 'set 'split into two patchs as suggested by Namhyung. (PATCH v5 4/6, PATCH v5 5/6) Changes in v4: - If some config value is default value, notice it is '(default)' as suggested by Jirka. (PATCH v4 3/5) - If there wasn't any perfconfig file, perf-config malfunctioned like Jirka pointed out. So add exception routine with '--global' and '--system' option which can select perf config file path. (PATCH v4 2/5) Changes in v3: - Add a config variable 'kmem.default' with a default value as suggested by Namhyung. (PATCH v3 2/5, PATCH v4 3/5) Changes in v2: - Change option name of listing all configs as '--list-all' instead of '--all' as suggested by Namhyung. (PATCH v2 3/4, PATCH v4 4/5) - Correct small infelicities or typing errors in a perf-config documention as suggested by Arnaldo. (PATCH v2 1/4, PATCH v4 1/5) - Declaration a global variable 'static struct default_configsets' has config variables with default values instead of using a 'util/PERFCONFIG-DEFAULT' file. (PATCH v2 3/4, PATCH v4 3/5) - Add a function to normalize a value and check data type of it. (PATCH v2 2/4, PATCH v4 3/5) - Simplify parsing arguments as arguments is just divided by '=' and then in front of '.' is a section, between '.' and '=' is a name, and behind '=' is a value. (PATCH v2 2/4, PATCH v4 3/5) - If run perf-config command without any option, perf-config work as '--list'.
