Support displaying the average IPC and IPC coverage per symbol in 'perf
report' --tui and --stdio modes.
For example,
$ perf record -b ...
$ perf report -s symbol
Overhead Symbol IPC [IPC Coverage]
39.60% [.] __random 2.30 [ 54.8%]
18.02% [.] main 0.43 [ 54.3%]
14.21% [.] compute_flag 2.29 [100.0%]
14.16% [.] rand 0.36 [100.0%]
7.06% [.] __random_r 2.57 [ 70.5%]
6.85% [.] rand@plt 0.00 [ 0.0%]
Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> provided the patch to support the --stdio
mode. I merged Jiri's code in this patch.
$ perf report -s symbol --stdio
# Overhead Symbol IPC [IPC Coverage]
# ........ ........................... ....................
#
39.60% [.] __random 2.30 [ 54.8%]
18.02% [.] main 0.43 [ 54.3%]
14.21% [.] compute_flag 2.29 [100.0%]
14.16% [.] rand 0.36 [100.0%]
7.06% [.] __random_r 2.57 [ 70.5%]
6.85% [.] rand@plt 0.00 [ 0.0%]
0.02% [k] run_timer_softirq 1.60 [ 57.2%]
The columns "IPC" and "[IPC Coverage]" are automatically enabled when
the sort-key "symbol" is specified. If the perf.data file doesn't
contain timed LBR information, columns are filled with "-".
For example,
# Overhead Symbol IPC [IPC Coverage]
# ........ ........................... ....................
#
46.57% [.] main - -
17.60% [.] rand - -
15.84% [.] __random_r - -
11.90% [.] __random - -
6.50% [.] compute_flag - -
1.59% [.] rand@plt - -
0.00% [.] _dl_relocate_object - -
0.00% [k] tlb_flush_mmu - -
0.00% [k] perf_event_mmap - -
0.00% [k] native_sched_clock - -
0.00% [k] intel_pmu_handle_irq_v4 - -
0.00% [k] native_write_msr - -
v3:
---
Removed the sortkey 'ipc' from command-line. The columns "IPC"
and "[IPC Coverage]" are automatically enabled when "symbol"
is specified.
v2:
---
Merge in Jiri's patch to support stdio mode

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
