Subject[PATCH] perf, tools, script: Allow adding and removing fields
Date
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

With perf script it is common that we just want to add or remove a field.
Currently this requires figuring out the long list of default fields and
specifying them first, and then adding/removing the new field.

This patch adds a new + - syntax to merely add or remove fields,
that allows more succint and clearer command lines

For example to remove the comm field from PMU samples:

Previously

perf script -F pid,cpu,time,event,sym,ip,dso,period
0 [000] 504345.383126: 1 cycles: ffffffff90060c66 native_write_msr ([kernel.kallsyms])

with the new syntax

perf script -F -comm
0 [000] 504345.383126: 1 cycles: ffffffff90060c66 native_write_msr ([kernel.kallsyms])

The new syntax cannot be mixed with normal overriding.
