[PATCH 19/31] perf tools: Provide the right bash completion for listing options of perf subcommand subsubcommand

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Thu Mar 19 2015 - 13:06:42 EST


From: Yunlong Song <yunlong.song@xxxxxxxxxx>

The bash completion gives wrong options for 'perf kvm|kmem|mem|lock|
sched subsubcommand --<TAB>', where 'kvm|kmem|mem|lock|sched' are all
subcommands of perf and 'subsubcommand' is a subcommand of 'kvm|kmem|mem
|lock|sched'. In fact, the result incorrectly lists the bash completion
of 'perf subcommand' rather than 'perf subcommand subsubcommand'.

Example:

Before this patch:

$ perf kvm record --<TAB>
--guest --guestkallsyms --guestmodules --guestmount
--guestvmlinux --host --input --output
--verbose

As shown above, the result is the options of kvm rather than record.

After this patch:

$ perf kvm record --<TAB>
--all-cpus --cgroup --delay --group
--no-buildid --output --quiet --stat
--uid
--branch-any --count --event --intr-regs
--no-buildid-cache --period --raw-samples --tid
--verbose
--branch-filter --cpu --filter --mmap-pages
--no-inherit --per-thread --realtime --timestamp
--weight
--call-graph --data --freq
--no-buffering --no-samples --pid
--running-time --transaction

As shown above, the result is exactly the options of record as we wished.
