I had initially thought of defining two<br>orders ( say default_mem_sort_order plus mem_sort_order_pstage ). But if<br>new sort keys gets added for mem mode in future, we will need to keep<br>updating both orders. So preferred the approach of "appending" supported sort<br>keys to default order.<br><br>Following your thought on using "sort_dimension__add", I tried below approach<br>which is easier. The new sort dimension "p_stage_cyc" is presently only supported<br>on powerpc. For unsupported platforms, we don't want to display it<br>in the perf report output columns. Hence added check in sort_dimension__add()<br>and skip the sort key incase its not applicable for particular arch.<br><br>Please help to check if below approach looks fine.<br><br><br>diff --git a/tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/event.c b/tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/event.c<br>index b80fbee83b6e..7205767d75eb 100644<br>--- a/tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/event.c<br>+++ b/tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/event.c<br>@@ -44,3 +44,10 @@ const char *arch_perf_header_entry__add(const char *se_header)<br> <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>return "Dispatch Cyc";<br> <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>return se_header;<br> }<br>+<br>+int arch_support_sort_key(const char *sort_key)<br>+{<br>+<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>if (!strcmp(sort_key, "p_stage_cyc"))<br>+<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>return 1;<br>+<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>return 0;<br>+}<br>diff --git a/tools/perf/util/event.h b/tools/perf/util/event.h<br>index 65f89e80916f..612a92aaaefb 100644<br>--- a/tools/perf/util/event.h<br>+++ b/tools/perf/util/event.h<br>@@ -429,5 +429,6 @@ char *get_page_size_name(u64 size, char *str);<br> void arch_perf_parse_sample_weight(struct perf_sample *data, const __u64 *array, u64 type);<br> void arch_perf_synthesize_sample_weight(const struct perf_sample *data, __u64 *array, u64 type);<br> const char *arch_perf_header_entry__add(const char *se_header);<br>+int arch_support_sort_key(const char *sort_key);<br><br> #endif /* __PERF_RECORD_H */<br>diff --git a/tools/perf/util/sort.c b/tools/perf/util/sort.c<br>index cbb3899e7eca..d8b0b0b43a81 100644<br>--- a/tools/perf/util/sort.c<br>+++ b/tools/perf/util/sort.c<br>@@ -47,6 +47,7 @@ regex_t<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>ignore_callees_regex;<br> int<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>have_ignore_callees = 0;<br> enum sort_mode<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>sort__mode = SORT_MODE__NORMAL;<br> const char<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>*dynamic_headers[] = {"local_ins_lat", "p_stage_cyc"};<br>+const char<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>*arch_specific_sort_keys[] = {"p_stage_cyc"};<br><br> /*<br> * Replaces all occurrences of a char used with the:<br>@@ -1837,6 +1838,11 @@ struct sort_dimension {<br> <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>int<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>taken;<br> };<br><br>+int __weak arch_support_sort_key(const char *sort_key __maybe_unused)<br>+{<br>+<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>return 0;<br>+}<br>+<br> const char * __weak arch_perf_header_entry__add(const char *se_header)<br> {<br> <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>return se_header;<br>@@ -2773,6 +2779,18 @@ int sort_dimension__add(struct perf_hpp_list *list, const char *tok,<br> {<br> <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>unsigned int i, j;<br><br>+<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>/* Check to see if there are any arch specific<br>+<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span> * sort dimensions not applicable for the current<br>+<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span> * architecture.
