When I use prefix=/usr and try to install libtraceevent in my laptop it
tries to install in /usr/lib64. I am not having any folder as /usr/lib64
and also the debian policy doesnot allow installing in /usr/lib64. It
should be in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/.
Quote: No package for a 64 bit architecture may install files in
/usr/lib64/ or in a subdirectory of it.
ref: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html
Make it more flexible by allowing to mention libdir_relative while
installing so that distros can mention the path according to their
policy or use the default one.

I used the command:
make O=../../../obj-trace DESTDIR=~/test prefix==/usr install
It turns out libtraceevent Makefile, even though it builds in a separate

So, add the 'OUTPUT' prefix to the source path so that 'make' looks for

When we passed some location in DESTDIR, install_headers called
do_install with DESTDIR as part of the second argument.
But do_install is again using '$(DESTDIR_SQ)$2', so as a result the
headers were installed in a location $DESTDIR/$DESTDIR.
In my testing I passed DESTDIR=/home/sudip/test and the headers were
installed in: /home/sudip/test/home/sudip/test/usr/include/traceevent.
Lets remove DESTDIR from the second argument of do_install so that the
headers are installed in the correct location.

Libtraceevent APIs for printing various trace events information are
complicated, there are complex extra parameters. To control the way
event information is printed, the user should call a set of functions in
a specific sequence.
These APIs are reimplemented to provide a more simple interface for
printing event information.
Removed APIs:
tep_print_event_task()
tep_print_event_time()
tep_print_event_data()
tep_event_info()
tep_is_latency_format()
tep_set_latency_format()
tep_data_latency_format()
tep_set_print_raw()
A new API for printing event information is introduced:
void tep_print_event(struct tep_handle *tep, struct trace_seq *s,
struct tep_record *record, const char *fmt, ...);
where "fmt" is a printf-like format string, followed by the event
fields to be printed. Supported fields:
TEP_PRINT_PID, "%d" - event PID
TEP_PRINT_CPU, "%d" - event CPU
TEP_PRINT_COMM, "%s" - event command string
TEP_PRINT_NAME, "%s" - event name
TEP_PRINT_LATENCY, "%s" - event latency
TEP_PRINT_TIME, %d - event time stamp. A divisor and precision
can be specified as part of this format string:
"%precision.divisord". Example:
"%3.1000d" - divide the time by 1000 and print the first 3 digits
before the dot. Thus, the time stamp "123456000" will be printed as
"123.456"
TEP_PRINT_INFO, "%s" - event information.
TEP_PRINT_INFO_RAW, "%s" - event information, in raw format.
Example:
tep_print_event(tep, s, record, "%16s-%-5d [%03d] %s %6.1000d %s %s",
TEP_PRINT_COMM, TEP_PRINT_PID, TEP_PRINT_CPU,
TEP_PRINT_LATENCY, TEP_PRINT_TIME, TEP_PRINT_NAME, TEP_PRINT_INFO);
Output:
ls-11314 [005] d.h. 185207.366383 function __wake_up

While reading a trace data file that had 100,000s of tasks, the process
took an extremely long time. I profiled it down to add_new_comm(), which
was doing a qsort() call on an array that was pretty much already sorted
(all but the last element. qsort() isn't very efficient when dealing
with mostly sorted arrays, and this definitely showed its issues.
When adding a new task to the task list, instead of using qsort(), do
another bsearch() with a function that will find the element before
where the new task will be inserted in. Then simply shift the rest of
the array, and insert the task where it belongs.

If the re-allocation of tep->cmdlines succeeds, then the previous
allocation of tep->cmdlines will be freed. If we later fail in

tep->cmdlines to the new allocation. Otherwise when freeing tep, the
tep->cmdlines will be pointing to garbage.

The tools/lib/traceevent/Makefile had a test added to it to detect a failure
of the "nm" when making the dynamic list file (whatever that is). The
problem is that the test sorts the values "U W w" and some versions of sort
will place "w" ahead of "W" (even though it has a higher ASCII value, and
break the test.
Add 'tr "w" "W"' to merge the two and not worry about the ordering.

"The main kernel changes were:

in PEBS records and can thus batch up and reduce the IRQ (NMI) rate
significantly - reducing overhead and making call-graph profiling
less intrusive.
- add Intel CPU core and uncore support updates for Tremont, Icelake,
- extend the x86 PMU constraints scheduler with 'constraint ranges'
to better support Icelake hw constraints,
- make x86 call-chain support work better with CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y
- misc other changes

The traceevent lib is used by the perf tool, and when executing
perf test -v 6
it outputs error log on the ARM64 platform:
running test 33 '*:*'trace-cmd: No such file or directory
[...]
trace-cmd: Invalid argument
The trace event parsing code originally came from trace-cmd so it keeps
the tag string "trace-cmd" for errors, this easily introduces the
impression that the perf tool launches trace-cmd command for trace event
parsing, but in fact the related parsing is accomplished by the
traceevent lib.
This patch changes the tag string to "libtraceevent" so that we can
avoid confusion and let users to more easily connect the error with
traceevent lib.

There was a missing comparison with 0 when checking if type is "s64" or
"u64". Therefore, the body of the if-statement was entered if "type" was
"u64" or not "s64", which made the first strcmp() redundant since if
type is "u64", it's not "s64".
If type is "s64", the body of the if-statement is not entered but since
the remainder of the function consists of if-statements which will not
be entered if type is "s64", we will just return "val", which is
correct, albeit at the cost of a few more calls to strcmp(), i.e., it
will behave just as if the if-statement was entered.
If type is neither "s64" or "u64", the body of the if-statement will be
entered incorrectly and "val" returned. This means that any type that is
checked after "s64" and "u64" is handled the same way as "s64" and
"u64", i.e., the limiting of "val" to fit in for example "s8" is never
reached.
This was introduced in the kernel tree when the sources were copied from
trace-cmd in commit f7d82350e5 ("tools/events: Add files to create
libtraceevent.a"), and in the trace-cmd repo in 1cdbae6035cei
("Implement typecasting in parser") when the function was introduced,
i.e., it has always behaved the wrong way.
