Often it is interesting to know how costly a given source line is in total. Previously, one had to build these sums manually based on all addresses that pointed to the same source line. This patch introduces srcline as a sort key, which will do the aggregation for us. Paired with the recent addition of showing inline frames, this makes perf report much more useful for many C++ work loads. The following shows the new feature in action. First, let's show the status quo output when we sort by address. The result contains many hist entries that generate the same output: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ $ perf report --stdio --inline -g address # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ............ ................... ......................................... # 99.89% 35.34% cpp-inlining cpp-inlining [.] main | |--64.55%--main complex:655 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/complex:664 (inline) | | | |--60.31%--hypot +20 | | | | | |--8.52%--__hypot_finite +273 | | | | | |--7.32%--__hypot_finite +411 ... --35.34%--_start +4194346 __libc_start_main +241 | |--6.65%--main random.tcc:3326 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1809 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1818 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:185 (inline) | |--2.70%--main random.tcc:3326 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1809 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1818 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:185 (inline) | |--1.69%--main random.tcc:3326 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1809 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1818 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:185 (inline) ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ With this patch and `-g srcline` we instead get the following output: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ $ perf report --stdio --inline -g srcline # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ........ ............ ................... ......................................... # 99.89% 35.34% cpp-inlining cpp-inlining [.] main | |--64.55%--main complex:655 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/complex:664 (inline) | | | |--64.02%--hypot | | | | | --59.81%--__hypot_finite | | | --0.53%--cabs | --35.34%--_start __libc_start_main | |--12.48%--main random.tcc:3326 | /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1809 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:1818 (inline) | /usr/include/c++/6.3.1/bits/random.h:185 (inline) ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Milian Wolff <milian.wolff@kdab.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Yao Jin <yao.jin@linux.intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170318214928.9047-1-milian.wolff@kdab.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> |
