[PATCH -tip v3 3/5] perf script: enhance IP and ADDR correlatedetection for BTS

From: Akihiro Nagai
Date: Thu Aug 11 2011 - 08:06:05 EST


BTS records branch_from_addr and branch_to_addr in IP and ADDR field in perf_sample.
This patch detects this correlation in perf-script.

# perf script -f ip,addr,dso,sym
