Introduce new infrastructure code for config management features of perf-config subcommand. This pathset contains basic code for various purposes of configuration management showing current configs, in the near future, showing all configs with default value, getting current configs from the config files or writing configs that user type on the config files, etc. IMHO, I think this infrastructure code is needed to add new funcationalities for config management of perf-config. If anyone reviews this, I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Taeung v3: - use the section list that contains configs each section instead of the single config list (Namhyung) - exclude a patch for '--list-all' option from this patchset v2: - remove perf_config_kind (user, system or both config files) and needless at this time, etc. (Namhyung) - separate this patch as several patches (Namhyung) - fix typing errors, etc. Taeung Song (4): perf config: Introduce perf_config_set class perf config: Let show_config() work with perf_config_set perf config: Prepare all default configs perf config: Initialize perf_config_set with all default configs tools/perf/builtin-config.c | 38 ++++-- tools/perf/util/config.c | 298 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ tools/perf/util/config.h | 90 +++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 419 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tools/perf/util/config.h -- 2.5.0
