[PATCH 15/18] perf report: Add -q/--quiet option

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Mon Feb 20 2017 - 14:10:27 EST


From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@xxxxxxxxxx>

The -q/--quiet option is to suppress any message. Sometimes users just
want to see the numbers and it can be used for that case.

Before:

$ perf report | head -15
Failed to open /lib/modules/3.19.3-3-ARCH/kernel/fs/ext4/ext4.ko.gz, continuing without symbols
Failed to open /lib/modules/3.19.3-3-ARCH/kernel/fs/jbd2/jbd2.ko.gz, continuing without symbols

# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
#
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 39K of event 'cycles'
# Event count (approx.): 30444796573

# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol

5.64% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] native_write_msr_safe
1.93% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __switch_to
1.89% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] menu_select
1.75% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __switch_to

After:

$ perf report -q | head
