[PATCH 0/7] tracing: Hist trigger snapshot and onchange additions

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

 



From: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi,

This patchset adds some useful new functions to the hist trigger code:
a snapshot action and an onchange handler.

In order to make it easier to add these and in the process make the
code more generic, I separated the code into explicit 'handlers' and
'actions', handlers being things like 'onmax' and 'onchange', and
'actions' being things like 'take a snapshot' or 'save some fields'.

The first few patches do that basic refactoring, which make it easier
to add the subsequent changes that arbitrarily combine actions and
handlers.

The fourth patch adds a 'conditional snapshot' capability that via a
new tracing_snaphot_cond() function extends the existing snapshot
code.  It allows the caller to associate some user data with the
snapshot that can be checked and saved in an update() callback whose
return value determines whether the snapshot should be taken or not.

The remaining patches finally add the new snapshot action and onchange
handler functionality - please see those patches for details and some
examples.

Thanks,

Tom
