From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> When in the hists browser, i.e. in 'perf report' or in 'perf top', it is possible to press '/' and specify a substring to filter by symbol name.
Clarify how to remove a filter by making the prompt be: Please enter the name of symbol you want to see. To remove the filter later, press / + ENTER Cc: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> Cc: Borislav Petkov <[email protected]> Cc: David Ahern <[email protected]> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Cc: Stephane Eranian <[email protected]> Cc: Wang Nan <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> --- tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c b/tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c index eea16278d038..772834912c7c 100644 --- a/tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c +++ b/tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c @@ -1889,7 +1889,8 @@ static int perf_evsel__hists_browse(struct perf_evsel *evsel, int nr_events, continue; case '/': if (ui_browser__input_window("Symbol to show", - "Please enter the name of symbol you want to see", + "Please enter the name of symbol you want to see.\n" + "To remove the filter later, press / + ENTER.", buf, "ENTER: OK, ESC: Cancel", delay_secs * 2) == K_ENTER) { hists->symbol_filter_str = *buf ? buf : NULL; -- 2.1.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
