[PATCH v7 7/7] perf report: Show branch type in callchain entry

From: Jin Yao
Date: Tue Jul 11 2017 - 03:04:52 EST


Show branch type in callchain entry. The branch type is printed
with other LBR information (such as cycles/abort/...).

For example:
perf record -g -j any,save_type
perf report --branch-history --stdio --no-children

38.50% div.c:45 [.] main div
|
---main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2)
compute_flag div.c:27 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:1)
__random random.c:298 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:297 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:295 (RET CROSS_2M cycles:9)

Change log
----------
v7: Not changed.

v6: Remove the branch_type_str() since it's moved to branch.c.

v5: Rewrite the branch info print code in util/callchain.c.

v4: Comparing to previous version, the major changes are:
