After this patch, 'perf data convert' convert comm events to output CTF
stream.
Result:
# perf record -a sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.378 MB perf.data (73 samples) ]
# perf data convert --to-ctf ./out.ctf
[ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './out.ctf' ]
[ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 0.003 MB (73 samples) ]
# babeltrace --clock-seconds ./out.ctf/

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
perf-data - Data file related processing
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'perf data' [<common options>] <command> [<options>]",
|

|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Data file related processing.
|
|
|
|
COMMANDS
|
|
--------
|
|
convert::
|
|
Converts perf data file into another format (only CTF [1] format is support by now).
|
|
It's possible to set data-convert debug variable to get debug messages from conversion,
|
|
like:
|
|
perf --debug data-convert data convert ...
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS for 'convert'
|
|
---------------------
|
|
--to-ctf::
|
|
Triggers the CTF conversion, specify the path of CTF data directory.
|
|
|
|
-i::
|
|
Specify input perf data file path.
|
|
|
|
-v::
|
|
--verbose::
|
|
Be more verbose (show counter open errors, etc).
|
|
|
|
--all::
|
|
Convert all events, including non-sample events (comm, fork, ...), to output.
|
|
Default is off, only convert samples.
