[PATCH v2 0/7] Trace2 timers and counters and some cleanup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here is version 2 of this series to add timers and counters to Trace2.

Changes since V1:

 * I dropped the commits concerning compiler errors in Clang 11.0.0 on
   MacOS. I've sent them to the mailing list in a separate series, since
   they had nothing to do with the main topic of this series.

 * I moved the documentation changes earlier in the series to get it out of
   the way (and eliminate the need to update it later commits).

 * After a long conversation on the mailing list, I redid the two
   thread-name commits to simplify and hopefully eliminate the remaining
   misunderstandings and/or short-comings of my previous attempt and
   explanations. We now use a "const char *" for the field in the thread-ctx
   that we format and detach from a strbuf during thread-start. The goal
   here is to move away from a modifyable strbuf in the thread-ctx itself
   (to avoid giving the appearance that a caller could modify the
   thread-name at some point, when that was not intended).

The last 2 commits add the stopwatch timers and the global counters and are
unchanged from the previous version.

     -    This should make it clearer in the API that the trace2 layer

     -    that it will use that hint in formatting the actual thread's

          This commit does not change how the `thread_name` field is
          allocated or stored within the `tr2tls_thread_ctx` structure.

     -    trace2: convert ctx.thread_name to flex array
     +    trace2: convert ctx.thread_name from strbuf to pointer
      
          Convert the `tr2tls_thread_ctx.thread_name` field from a `strbuf`
     -    to a "flex array" at the end of the context structure.
     +    to a "const char*" pointer.
      
          The `thread_name` field is a constant string that is constructed when
          the context is created.  Using a (non-const) `strbuf` structure for it
          caused some confusion in the past because it implied that someone
          could rename a thread after it was created.  That usage was not
     -    intended.  Changing it to a "flex array" will hopefully make the
     -    intent more clear.
     -
     -    Also, move the maximum thread_name truncation to tr2_tgt_perf.c
     -    because it is the only target that needs to worry about output column
     -    alignment.
     +    intended.  Change it to a const pointer to make the intent more clear.
