record__mmap_read() write data from ring buffer into perf.data. 'head' is maintained by kernel, points to the last writtend record. 'old' is maintained by perf, points to the record read in previous round. record__mmap_read() saves data from 'old' to 'head' to perf.data. The names of these variables are not very intutive. In addition, when dealing with backward writing ring buffer, the md->prev pointer should point to 'head' instead of the last byte it got. Add start and end pointer to make code clear and set md->prev to 'head' instead of the moved 'old' pointer. This patch doesn't change behavior since: buf = &data[old & md->mask]; size = head - old; old += size; <--- Here, old == head Signed-off-by: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: He Kuang <hekuang@huawei.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com --- tools/perf/builtin-record.c | 21 +++++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.4
