[ Upstream commit e8fedff1cc729fd227924305152ccc6f580e8c83 ]
Stephan reported, that pipe mode does not carry the group information
and thus the piped report won't display the grouped output for following
command:
# perf record -e '{cycles,instructions,branches}' -a sleep 4 | perf report
It has no idea about the group setup, so it will display events
separately:
# Overhead Command Shared Object ...
# ........ ............... .......................
#
6.71% swapper [kernel.kallsyms]
2.28% offlineimap libpython2.7.so.1.0
0.78% perf [kernel.kallsyms]
...
Fix GROUP_DESC feature record to be synthesized in pipe mode, so the
report output is grouped if there are groups defined in record:
# Overhead Command Shared ...
# ........................ ............... .......
#
7.57% 0.16% 0.30% swapper [kernel
1.87% 3.15% 2.46% offlineimap libpyth
1.33% 0.00% 0.00% perf [kernel
...

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
