Normally with a short option we don't provide an equals sign like this -tfile.txt -t file.txt But we do provide an equals sign with the long option like this --trace=file.txt Also, a good parser should work with a space instead of an equals sign --trace file.txt Most of these are broken! ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 -tfile.txt Saving trace to ile.txt File name truncated ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 -t file.txt Saving trace to timerlat_trace.txt Default file name used instead of the requested one. ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 -t=file.txt Saving trace to file.txt This works, but people normally don't use '=' with a short option /rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 --trace=file.txt Saving trace to ile.txt File name truncated ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 --trace file.txt timerlat_trace.txt Default file name used instead of the requested one. After the fix ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 -tfile.txt Saving trace to file.txt ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 -t file.txt Saving trace to file.txt ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 -t=file.txt Saving trace to file.txt ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 --trace=file.txt Saving trace to file.txt ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 --trace file.txt Saving trace to file.txt I also tested -t and --trace without providing a file name both as the last requested option and with a following long and short option For example ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 -t -u ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 --trace -u ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 -t ./rtla timerlat hist -P f:95 -u -c0-11 -E3500 -T50 --trace And all correctly do Saving trace to timerlat_trace.txt as expected This fix is applied to both timerlat top and hist and to osnoise top and hist Signed-off-by: John Kacur <jkacur@xxxxxxxxxx> --- tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_hist.c | 11 ++++++++--- tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_top.c | 11 ++++++++--- tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_hist.c | 11 ++++++++--- tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c | 11 ++++++++--- 4 files changed, 32 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_hist.c b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_hist.c index 01870d50942a..8ff1c816eb6a 100644 --- a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_hist.c +++ b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_hist.c @@ -640,9 +640,14 @@ static struct osnoise_hist_params params->threshold = get_llong_from_str(optarg); break; case 't': - if (optarg) - /* skip = */ - params->trace_output = &optarg[1]; + if (optarg) { + if (optarg[0] == '=') + params->trace_output = &optarg[1]; + else + params->trace_output = &optarg[0]; + } + else if (optind < argc && argv[optind][0] != '0') + params->trace_output = argv[optind]; else params->trace_output = "osnoise_trace.txt"; break; diff --git a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_top.c b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_top.c index 457360db0767..c685d881daf1 100644 --- a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_top.c +++ b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/osnoise_top.c @@ -480,9 +480,14 @@ struct osnoise_top_params *osnoise_top_parse_args(int argc, char **argv) params->stop_total_us = get_llong_from_str(optarg); break; case 't': - if (optarg) - /* skip = */ - params->trace_output = &optarg[1]; + if (optarg){ + if (optarg[0] == '=') + params->trace_output = &optarg[1]; + else + params->trace_output = &optarg[0]; + } + else if (optind < argc && argv[optind][0] != '-') + params->trace_output = argv[optind]; else params->trace_output = "osnoise_trace.txt"; break; diff --git a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_hist.c b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_hist.c index 8bd51aab6513..d2a639d3c02c 100644 --- a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_hist.c +++ b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_hist.c @@ -720,9 +720,14 @@ static struct timerlat_hist_params params->stop_total_us = get_llong_from_str(optarg); break; case 't': - if (optarg) - /* skip = */ - params->trace_output = &optarg[1]; + if (optarg) { + if (optarg[0] == '=') + params->trace_output = &optarg[1]; + else + params->trace_output = &optarg[0]; + } + else if (optind < argc && argv[optind][0] != '-') + params->trace_output = argv[optind]; else params->trace_output = "timerlat_trace.txt"; break; diff --git a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c index 8a3fa64319c6..e6e75937832e 100644 --- a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c +++ b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c @@ -547,9 +547,14 @@ static struct timerlat_top_params params->stop_total_us = get_llong_from_str(optarg); break; case 't': - if (optarg) - /* skip = */ - params->trace_output = &optarg[1]; + if (optarg) { + if (optarg[0] == '=') + params->trace_output = &optarg[1]; + else + params->trace_output = &optarg[0]; + } + else if (optind < argc && argv[optind][0] != '-') + params->trace_output = argv[optind]; else params->trace_output = "timerlat_trace.txt"; -- 2.44.0
