[PATCH] perf tools: Fix cumul hit based sub-total

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Fri Aug 07 2009 - 01:11:20 EST


The callchain fractal mode builds each new total hits in a new branch
of profiling by using the parent's hits of the current branch plus the
hits of the children.

This is wrong, the total hits of a branch should be made of the sum of
every children hits, we must ignore the parent hits in this scope.

This patch also fixes another mistakes with the hit counting.

Now the rates are corrects.
