- Renamed struct_.py -> structs.py again.
- Removed lfs.csv, instead prefering script specific csv files.
- Added *-diff make rules for quick comparison against a previous
result, results are now implicitly written on each run.
For example, `make code` creates lfs.code.csv and prints the summary, which
can be followed by `make code-diff` to compare changes against the saved
lfs.code.csv without overwriting.
- Added nargs=? support for -s and -S, now uses a per-result _sort
attribute to decide sort if fields are unspecified.
- Fixed added/removed count in scripts when an entry has no field in
the expected results
- Fixed a python-sort-type issue when by-field is missing in a result
- Changed --(tool)-tool to --(tool)-path in scripts, this seems to be
a more common name for this sort of flag.
- Changed BUILDDIR to not have implicit slash, makes Makefile internals
a bit more readable.
- Fixed some outdated names hidden in less-often used ifdefs.
Based loosely on Linux's perf tool, perfbd.py uses trace output with
backtraces to aggregate and show the block device usage of all functions
in a program, propagating block devices operation cost up the backtrace
for each operation.
This combined with --trace-period and --trace-freq for
sampling/filtering trace events allow the bench-runner to very
efficiently record the general cost of block device operations with very
little overhead.
Adopted this as the default side-effect of make bench, replacing
cycle-based performance measurements which are less important for
littlefs.
