[PATCH V6 17/17] perf tools: choose to dump callchain from LBR and FP
From: Kan Liang
Date: Sun Oct 19 2014 - 18:07:18 EST
Extend call-graph option in perf report to support callchain source (fp
or lbr).
The default value is fp. It means that frame pointers is preferred call
chain source. If it isn't available, lbr data will be used then.
If the value is set to lbr, it means lbr data is preferred call chain
source. If lbr data isn't available, try fp data then.
