Adrian Hunter 75659c6fb5 perf scripts python: intel-pt-events.py: Print ptwrite value as a string if it is ASCII ... It can be convenient to put a string value into a ptwrite payload as a quick and easy way to identify what is being printed. To make that useful, if the Intel ptwrite payload value contains only printable ASCII characters padded with NULLs, then print it also as a string. Using the example program from the "Emulated PTWRITE" section of tools/perf/Documentation/perf-intel-pt.txt: $ echo -n "Hello" | od -t x8 0000000 0000006f6c6c6548 0000005 $ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./eg_ptw 0x0000006f6c6c6548 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.016 MB perf.data ] $ perf script --itrace=ew intel-pt-events.py Intel PT Branch Trace, Power Events, Event Trace and PTWRITE Switch In 38524/38524 [001] 24166.044995916 0/0 eg_ptw 38524/38524 [001] 24166.045380004 ptwrite jmp IP: 0 payload: 0x6f6c6c6548 Hello 56532c7ce196 perf_emulate_ptwrite+0x16 (/home/ahunter/git/work/eg_ptw) End Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220509152400.376613-4-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>		2022-05-17 11:56:15 -03:00
