Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 4/4] xentrace: Implement cpu mask range parsing of human values (-c).



On 06/13/2014 09:41 PM, Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk wrote:
Instead of just using -c 0x<some hex value> we can
also use -c <starting cpu>-<end cpu> or -c <cpu1>,<cpu2>
or a combination of them.

That should make it easier to trace the right CPU if
using this along with 'xl vcpu-list'.

The code has been lifted from the Linux kernel, see file
lib/bitmap.c, function __bitmap_parselist.

To make the old behavior and the new function work, we check
to see if the arguments have '0x' in them. If they do
we use the old style parsing (limited to 32 CPUs). If that
does not exist we use the new parsing.

I think something like this would be better:

I'm a bit confused why you don't just do strcmp("0x", s) here.

While we're at it, is there any chance we could put all the parsing stuff in the same place? If we can't call parse_cpumask_range here, I'd prefer to just do a strdup() always, and then do the check_for_hex() and parse_cpumask() or parse_cpumask_range() down below.
