[PATCH 07/10] perf tools: Add 'trace' sort key

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Mon Dec 21 2015 - 09:28:58 EST


The 'trace' sort key is to show tracepoint event output using either
print fmt or plugin. For example sched_switch event (using plugin) will
show output like below:

$ perf report -s trace --stdio
...
# Overhead Trace output
# ........ ...................................................
#
9.48% swapper/0:0 [120] R ==> transmission-gt:17773 [120]
9.48% transmission-gt:17773 [120] S ==> swapper/0:0 [120]
9.04% swapper/2:0 [120] R ==> transmission-gt:17773 [120]
8.92% transmission-gt:17773 [120] S ==> swapper/2:0 [120]
5.25% swapper/0:0 [120] R ==> kworker/0:1H:109 [100]
5.21% kworker/0:1H:109 [100] S ==> swapper/0:0 [120]
1.78% swapper/3:0 [120] R ==> transmission-gt:17773 [120]
1.78% transmission-gt:17773 [120] S ==> swapper/3:0 [120]
1.53% Xephyr:6524 [120] S ==> swapper/0:0 [120]
1.53% swapper/0:0 [120] R ==> Xephyr:6524 [120]
1.17% swapper/2:0 [120] R ==> irq/33-iwlwifi:233 [49]
1.13% irq/33-iwlwifi:233 [49] S ==> swapper/2:0 [120]

Note that the 'trace' sort key works only for tracepoint events. If
it's used to other type of events, just "N/A" will be printed.
