[PATCH RFC V6 0/6] per event callgraph and time support

[Kan Liang]

This patchkit adds the ability to turn off callgraphs and time stamps
per event. This in term can reduce sampling overhead and the size of
the perf.data.

Changes since V1:
  - Break up V1 patches into three patches(parse option changes,
    partial time support and partial callgraph support).
  - Use strings 'fp,dwarf,lbr,no' to identify callchains
  - Add test case in parse-events.c

Changes since V2:
  - Rebase on 60cd37eb10

Changes since V3:
  - Replace OPT_CALLBACK_SET by current existing callback mechanism.
  - Using perf_evsel__set_sample_bit if possible
  - Change the expression "partial" to "per event"
  - Using global variable to indicate if 'time' is set per event.
    If 'time' is not set, enable it by default for perf record.

Changes since V4:
  - Fix issue of setting callgraph_set

Changes since V5:
  - per-event settings over global settings in general
  - support for event post configuration structure

Jiri Olsa (2):
  perf tools: Add support for event post configuration
  perf tools: Force period term to overload global settings

Kan Liang (4):
  perf,tools: introduce callgraph_set for callgraph option
  perf,tool: per-event time support
  perf,tool: per-event callgraph support
  perf,tests: Add tests to callgraph and time parse
