From 5500fa51199aee770ce53718853732600543619e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Olsa Date: Wed, 15 Feb 2012 15:51:54 +0100 Subject: ftrace, perf: Add filter support for function trace event Adding support to filter function trace event via perf interface. It is now possible to use filter interface in the perf tool like: perf record -e ftrace:function --filter="(ip == mm_*)" ls The filter syntax is restricted to the the 'ip' field only, and following operators are accepted '==' '!=' '||', ending up with the filter strings like: ip == f1[, ]f2 ... || ip != f3[, ]f4 ... with comma ',' or space ' ' as a function separator. If the space ' ' is used as a separator, the right side of the assignment needs to be enclosed in double quotes '"', e.g.: perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == do_execve,sys_*,ext*)' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve,sys_*,ext*")' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve sys_* ext*")' ls The '==' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_filter file. The '!=' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_notrace file. The right side of the '!=', '==' operators is list of functions or regexp. to be added to filter separated by space. The '||' operator is used for connecting multiple filter definitions together. It is possible to have more than one '==' and '!=' operators within one filter string.
