From 4aa8e454d347a1c96a2322683a6798de7e17da5f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2015 14:02:29 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf hists browser: Inform how to reset the symbol filter 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 Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Stephane Eranian Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-vbq2b0kyufwy6p0ctkfswcoe@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- 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;
