[PATCH] perf: sched map skips redundant lines with cpu filters

From: Fernand Sieber
Date: Fri Jun 14 2024 - 03:35:44 EST


perf sched map supports cpu filter.
However, even with cpu filters active, any context switch currently
corresponds to a separate line.
As result, context switches on irrelevant cpus result to redundant lines,
which makes the output particlularly difficult to read on wide
architectures.

Fix it by skipping printing for irrelevant CPUs.

Example snippet of output before fix:

*B0 1.461147 secs
B0
B0
B0
*G0 1.517139 secs

After fix:

*B0 1.461147 secs
*G0 1.517139 secs
