Enable perf script to use perf.data when it is not owned by current user
or root. Change the short option name of --fields to -F to avoid confusion
with --force.
Example:
# perf record ls
# chown Yunlong.Song:Yunlong.Song perf.data
# ls -al perf.data
-rw------- 1 Yunlong.Song Yunlong.Song 28360 Apr 2 14:53 perf.data
# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),64(pkcs11)
Before this patch:
# perf script
File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
# perf script -f
Error: switch `f' requires a value
usage: perf script [<options>]
or: perf script [<options>] record <script> [<record-options>] <command>
or: perf script [<options>] report <script> [script-args]
or: perf script [<options>] <script> [<record-options>] <command>
or: perf script [<options>] <top-script> [script-args]
-f, --fields <str> comma separated output fields prepend with
'type:'. Valid types: hw,sw,trace,raw. Fields:
comm,tid,pid,time,cpu,event,trace,ip,sym,dso,addr,symoff,period
As shown above, the -f option does not work at all. And -f is already
taken up by --fields, which makes --force confused, so change the short
option name of --fields to -F like what other perf commands do (e.g.
perf report -F) and use -f as the short option name of --force.
After this patch:
# perf script
File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
# perf script -f
