Subject: [PATCH 36/46] perf record: Enable arbitrary event names thru name= modifier
Date:   Tue,  5 Jun 2018 14:50:20 -0300
Message-Id: <20180605175030.32549-37-acme@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <20180605175030.32549-1-acme@kernel.org>
References: <20180605175030.32549-1-acme@kernel.org>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

From: Alexey Budankov <alexey.budankov@linux.intel.com>

Enable complex event names containing [.:=,] symbols to be encoded into Perf
trace using name= modifier e.g. like this:

  perf record -e cpu/name=\'OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM\',\
		  period=0x3567e0,event=0x3c,cmask=0x1/Duk ./futex

Below is how it looks like in the report output. Please note explicit escaped
quoting at cmdline string in the header so that thestring can be directly reused
for another collection in shell:

perf report --header

  # ========
  ...
  # cmdline : /root/abudanko/kernel/tip/tools/perf/perf record -v -e cpu/name=\'OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM\',period=0x3567e0,event=0x3c,cmask=0x1/Duk ./futex
  # event : name = OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM, , type = 4, size = 112, config = 0x100003c, { sample_period, sample_freq } = 3500000, sample_type = IP|TID|TIME, disabled = 1, inh
  ...
  # ========

  # Total Lost Samples: 0
  #
  # Samples: 24K of event 'OFFCORE_RESPONSE:request=DEMAND_RFO:response=L3_HIT.SNOOP_HITM'
  # Event count (approx.): 86492000000
