But this loses the arguments handled by the first command -- ie., the real command line from the user. This patch saves the command line as typed by the user rather than what was passed to cmd_record. As an example consider the command: $ perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount record -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 10 Currently the command saved to the header is: cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf record -o perf.data.kvm -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1 (ignore the duplicated -o -- the first would be yet another bug with perf-kvm). With this patch the command line saved to the header is: cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount record -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1 v2: simplified to saving the command in parse_options per Stephane's suggestion Signed-off-by: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1343616831-6408-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- tools/perf/builtin-record.c | 2 -- tools/perf/util/header.c | 9 +++++++++ tools/perf/util/parse-options.c | 3 +++ 3 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-record.c b/tools/perf/builtin-record.c index dc2b625..4db6e1b 100644 --- a/tools/perf/builtin-record.c +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-record.c @@ -844,8 +844,6 @@ int cmd_record(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix __used) struct perf_record *rec = &record; char errbuf[BUFSIZ]; - perf_header__set_cmdline(argc, argv); - evsel_list = perf_evlist__new(NULL, NULL); if (evsel_list == NULL) return -ENOMEM; diff --git a/tools/perf/util/header.c b/tools/perf/util/header.c index 3a6d204..74ea3c2 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/header.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/header.c @@ -174,6 +174,15 @@ perf_header__set_cmdline(int argc, const char **argv) { int i; + /* + * If header_argv has already been set, do not override it. + * This allows a command to set the cmdline, parse args and + * then call another builtin function that implements a + * command -- e.g, cmd_kvm calling cmd_record. + */ + if (header_argv) + return 0; + header_argc = (u32)argc; /* do not include NULL termination */ diff --git a/tools/perf/util/parse-options.c b/tools/perf/util/parse-options.c index 99d02aa..594f8fa 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/parse-options.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/parse-options.c @@ -1,6 +1,7 @@ #include "util.h" #include "parse-options.h" #include "cache.h" +#include "header.h" #define OPT_SHORT 1 #define OPT_UNSET 2 @@ -413,6 +414,8 @@ int parse_options(int argc, const char **argv, const struct option *options, { struct parse_opt_ctx_t ctx; + perf_header__set_cmdline(argc, argv); + parse_options_start(&ctx, argc, argv, flags); switch (parse_options_step(&ctx, options, usagestr)) { case PARSE_OPT_HELP: -- 1.7.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
