- Simplify option parsing Auto-generate getopt_long() optstring for short options from long options array, avoiding the need to specify it manually and reducing the surface for mistakes. - Add unit tests Implement unit tests (make unit-tests) using libcheck, next to existing runtime tests (make check). Currently, three functions from utils.c are tested. - Add --stack-format option In addition to stopping stack pointer decoding (with -s/--stack option) on first unresolvable pointer, allow also skipping unresolvable pointers and displaying everything, configurable with a new option. - Unify number of CPUs into one global variable Use one global variable, nr_cpus, to store the number of CPUs instead of retrieving it and passing it at multiple places. - Fix behavior in various corner cases Make RTLA behave correctly in several corner cases: memory allocation failure, invalid value read from kernel side, thread creation failure, malformed time value input, and read/write failure or interruption by signal. - Improve string handling Simplify several places in the code that handle strings, including parsing of action arguments. A few new helper functions and variables are added for that purpose. - Get rid of magic numbers Few places handling paths use a magic number of 1024. Replace it with MAX_PATH and ARRAY_SIZE() macro. - Unify threshold handling Code that handles response to latency threshold is duplicated between tools, which has led to bugs in the past. Unify it into a new helper as much as possible. - Fix segfault on SIGINT during cleanup The SIGINT handler touches dynamically allocated memory. Detach it before freeing it during cleanup to prevent segmentation fault and discarding of output buffers. Also, properly document SIGINT handling while at it. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYKADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCad4njhQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qoKkAP0bYgkuqvyBsplZf1Mqil7IRM3tTFni XJdkFFr6E6jS/gEAynaf7oq4gz7isvMvZZTOVcl1VflQAjLuY9ezO5LQzw0= =mR69 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-rtla-v7.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull RTLA updates from Steven Rostedt: - Simplify option parsing Auto-generate getopt_long() optstring for short options from long options array, avoiding the need to specify it manually and reducing the surface for mistakes. - Add unit tests Implement unit tests (make unit-tests) using libcheck, next to existing runtime tests (make check).
