perf report: Add "Fractal" mode output - support callchains with relative overhead rate
The current callchain displays the overhead rates as absolute: relative to the total overhead. This patch provides relative overhead percentage, in which each branch of the callchain tree is a independant instrumentated object. This provides a 'fractal' view of the call-chain profile: each sub-graph looks like a profile in itself - relative to its parent. You can produce such output by using the "fractal" mode that you can abbreviate via f, fr, fra, frac, etc... ./perf report -s sym -c fractal Example: 8.46% [k] copy_user_generic_string | |--52.01%-- generic_file_aio_read | do_sync_read | vfs_read | | | |--97.20%-- sys_pread64 | | system_call_fastpath | | pread64 | | | --2.81%-- sys_read | system_call_fastpath | __read | |--39.85%-- generic_file_buffered_write | __generic_file_aio_write_nolock | generic_file_aio_write | do_sync_write | reiserfs_file_write | vfs_write | | | |--97.05%-- sys_pwrite64 | | system_call_fastpath | | __pwrite64 | | | --2.95%-- sys_write | system_call_fastpath | __write_nocancel [...] Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> LKML-Reference: <1246772361-9960-5-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
