[PATCH 16/48] perf report: Support data type profiling
From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Wed Oct 11 2023 - 23:53:00 EST
Enable type annotation when the 'type' sort key is used.
It shows type of variables the samples access at the moment.
Users can see which types are accessed frequently.
$ perf report -s dso,type --stdio
...
# Overhead Shared Object Data Type
# ........ ................. .........
#
35.47% [kernel.kallsyms] (unknown)
1.62% [kernel.kallsyms] struct sched_entry
1.23% [kernel.kallsyms] struct cfs_rq
0.83% [kernel.kallsyms] struct task_struct
0.34% [kernel.kallsyms] struct list_head
0.30% [kernel.kallsyms] struct mem_cgroup
