Trace file version 7 format is based on sections. To fit the latency trace data in this structure, a new section and option for it is defined: BUFFER_TEXT It is similar to the BUFFER section which holds the flyrecord binary data, but has a latency specific design for text data. The BUFFER_TEXT section has: - section header, as all other sections - compression of the trace data, optional - corresponding trace option, pointing to the section Signed-off-by: Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) <tz.stoyanov@xxxxxxxxx> --- .../include/private/trace-cmd-private.h | 1 + lib/trace-cmd/trace-output.c | 20 +++++++++++++++++-- 2 files changed, 19 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/trace-cmd/include/private/trace-cmd-private.h b/lib/trace-cmd/include/private/trace-cmd-private.h index eaf51f5f..953297f3 100644 --- a/lib/trace-cmd/include/private/trace-cmd-private.h +++ b/lib/trace-cmd/include/private/trace-cmd-private.h @@ -150,6 +150,7 @@ enum { TRACECMD_OPTION_KALLSYMS, TRACECMD_OPTION_PRINTK, TRACECMD_OPTION_CMDLINES, + TRACECMD_OPTION_BUFFER_TEXT, TRACECMD_OPTION_MAX, }; diff --git a/lib/trace-cmd/trace-output.c b/lib/trace-cmd/trace-output.c index 30bf0dd1..7e1849c8 100644 --- a/lib/trace-cmd/trace-output.c +++ b/lib/trace-cmd/trace-output.c @@ -1892,7 +1892,9 @@ out_add_buffer_option(struct tracecmd_output *handle, const char *name, struct tracecmd_output *tracecmd_create_file_latency(const char *output_file, int cpus) { + enum tracecmd_section_flags flags = 0; struct tracecmd_output *handle; + tsize_t offset; char *path; handle = tracecmd_output_create(output_file); @@ -1909,7 +1911,8 @@ struct tracecmd_output *tracecmd_create_file_latency(const char *output_file, in if (tracecmd_write_cpus(handle, cpus) < 0) goto out_free; - + if (tracecmd_write_buffer_info(handle) < 0) + goto out_free; if (tracecmd_write_options(handle) < 0) goto out_free; @@ -1919,19 +1922,32 @@ struct tracecmd_output *tracecmd_create_file_latency(const char *output_file, in goto out_free; } - if (do_write_check(handle, "latency ", 10)) + if (!HAS_SECTIONS(handle) && do_write_check(handle, "latency ", 10)) goto out_free; path = get_tracing_file(handle, "trace"); if (!path) goto out_free; + offset = do_lseek(handle, 0, SEEK_CUR); + if (HAS_SECTIONS(handle) && + !out_add_buffer_option(handle, "", TRACECMD_OPTION_BUFFER_TEXT, offset, 0, NULL)) + goto out_free; + + offset = out_write_section_header(handle, TRACECMD_OPTION_BUFFER_TEXT, + "buffer latency", flags, false); + copy_file(handle, path); + if (out_update_section_header(handle, offset)) + goto out_free; put_tracing_file(path); handle->file_state = TRACECMD_FILE_CPU_LATENCY; + if (HAS_SECTIONS(handle)) + tracecmd_write_options(handle); + return handle; out_free: -- 2.34.1
