[PATCHSET 0/8] perf tools: Update on filtered entries' percentage output (v4)

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Sun Feb 09 2014 - 21:47:39 EST


Hello,

I added --percentage option to perf report to control display of
percentage of filtered entries.

usage: perf report [<options>]

--percentage <relative|absolute>
how to display percentage of filtered entries

"relative" means it's relative to filtered entries only so that the
sum of shown entries will be always 100%. "absolute" means it retains
original value before and after the filter applied. In patch 5, I
made the "absolute" as default since it makes more sense IMHO.

$ perf report -s comm
# Overhead Command
# ........ ............
#
74.19% cc1
7.61% gcc
6.11% as
4.35% sh
4.14% make
1.13% fixdep
...

$ perf report -s comm -c cc1,gcc --percentage absolute
# Overhead Command
# ........ ............
#
74.19% cc1
7.61% gcc

$ perf report -s comm -c cc1,gcc --percentage relative
# Overhead Command
# ........ ............
#
90.69% cc1
9.31% gcc

Note that it has zero effect if no filter was applied.

* changes in v4:
- support perf top and perf diff also (Jiri)
- add HIST_FILTER__HOST/GUEST (Jiri)
- retain both of filtered and total stats (Arnaldo)
- add 'F' hotkey on TUI (Jiri)
- rename config variable to have "hist." prefix


You can get this on the 'perf/percentage-v4' branch in my tree
