[PATCH 7/9] perf stat: Make --per-thread update shadow stats to show metrics

[Jiri Olsa]

We should support this because it would allow easily to collect metrics
for different threads in applications.

Original patch from posted by Jin Yao in here [1].

1. Current output, for example:

root@skl:/tmp# perf stat --per-thread -p 21623
^C
 Performance counter stats for process id '21623':

          vmstat-21623              0.517479      task-clock (msec)         #    0.000 CPUs utilized
          vmstat-21623                     1      context-switches
          vmstat-21623                     0      cpu-migrations
          vmstat-21623                     0      page-faults
          vmstat-21623               461,306      cycles
          vmstat-21623               630,724      instructions
          vmstat-21623               136,265      branches
          vmstat-21623                 2,520      branch-misses

       1.444020756 seconds time elapsed

root@skl:/tmp# perf stat --per-thread --metrics ipc -p 21623
^C
 Performance counter stats for process id '21623':

          vmstat-21623               631,185      inst_retired.any
          vmstat-21623               605,893      cpu_clk_unhalted.thread

       1.415679293 seconds time elapsed

2. With this patch, the result would be:

root@skl:/tmp# perf stat --per-thread -p 21623
^C
 Performance counter stats for process id '21623':

          vmstat-21623              0.533759      task-clock (msec)         #    0.000 CPUs utilized

          vmstat-21623                     0      page-faults               #    0.000 K/sec
