#1344863 — [PATCH 2/6] perf, tools, stat: Implement CSV metrics output

FromAndi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org>
Date2016-02-27 01:30 +0100
Subject[PATCH 2/6] perf, tools, stat: Implement CSV metrics output
Message-ID<r6AVI-2Yh-7@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

Now support CSV output for metrics. With the new output callbacks
this is relatively straight forward by creating new callbacks.

This allows to easily plot metrics from CSV files.

The new line callback needs to know the number of fields to skip them
correctly

Example output before:

% perf stat -x, true
0.200687,,task-clock,200687,100.00
0,,context-switches,200687,100.00
0,,cpu-migrations,200687,100.00
40,,page-faults,200687,100.00
730871,,cycles,203601,100.00
551056,,stalled-cycles-frontend,203601,100.00
<not supported>,,stalled-cycles-backend,0,100.00
385523,,instructions,203601,100.00
78028,,branches,203601,100.00
3946,,branch-misses,203601,100.00

After:

% perf stat -x, true
.502457,,task-clock,502457,100.00,0.485,CPUs utilized
0,,context-switches,502457,100.00,0.000,K/sec
0,,cpu-migrations,502457,100.00,0.000,K/sec
45,,page-faults,502457,100.00,0.090,M/sec
644692,,cycles,509102,100.00,1.283,GHz
423470,,stalled-cycles-frontend,509102,100.00,65.69,frontend cycles idle

4788,,branch-misses,509102,100.00,4.90,of all branches

Two new fields are added: metric value and metric name.

v2: Split out function argument changes
v3: Reenable metrics for real.
v4: Fix wrong hunk from refactoring.
v5: Remove extra "noise" printing (Jiri), but add it to the not counted case.
Print empty metrics for not counted.
v6: Avoid outputting metric on empty format.
v7: Print metric at the end
v8: Remove extra run, ena fields

I'm still getting the empty line:

	[jolsa@krava perf]$ ./perf stat -x, true
	0.389590,,task-clock,389590,100.00,0.479,CPUs utilized
	0,,context-switches,389590,100.00,0.000,K/sec
	0,,cpu-migrations,389590,100.00,0.000,K/sec
	43,,page-faults,389590,100.00,0.110,M/sec
	536038,,cycles,393283,100.00,1.376,GHz
	429548,,instructions,393283,100.00,0.80,insn per cycle
	,,,,,,,,
	85012,,branches,393283,100.00,218.209,M/sec
	3600,,branch-misses,393283,100.00,4.23,of all branches

it's not enough just not to include stalled cycles events
in case they are not supported, like you do in patch 1

perf_stat__print_shadow_stats prints stalled cycles
data within instruction event case, so you need to check
for stalled cycles in evlist in there

we have pointer to the evlist in each evsel, so it should be easy

thanks,
jirka
