    perf report: Add support for srcfile sort key · 31191a85
    Andi Kleen authored
    In some cases it's useful to characterize samples by file. This is
    useful to get a higher level categorization, for example to map cost to
    subsystems.
    
    Add a srcfile sort key to perf report. It builds on top of the existing
    srcline support.
    
    Commiter notes:
    
    E.g.:
    
      # perf record -F 10000 usleep 1
      [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
      [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.016 MB perf.data (13 samples) ]
      [root@zoo ~]# perf report -s srcfile --stdio
      # Total Lost Samples: 0
      #
      # Samples: 13  of event 'cycles'
      # Event count (approx.): 869878
      #
      # Overhead  Source File
      # ........  ...........
          60.99%  .
          20.62%  paravirt.h
          14.23%  rmap.c
           4.04%  signal.c
           0.11%  msr.h
    
      #
    
    The first line is collecting all the files for which srcfiles couldn't somehow
    get resolved to:
    
      # perf report -s srcfile,dso --stdio
      # Total Lost Samples: 0
      #
      # Samples: 13  of event 'cycles'
      # Event count (approx.): 869878
      #
      # Overhead  Source File  Shared Object
      # ........  ...........  ................
          40.97%  .            ld-2.20.so
          20.62%  paravirt.h   [kernel.vmlinux]
          20.02%  .            libc-2.20.so
          14.23%  rmap.c       [kernel.vmlinux]
           4.04%  signal.c     [kernel.vmlinux]
           0.11%  msr.h        [kernel.vmlinux]

    XXX: Investigate why that is not resolving on Fedora 21, Andi says he hasn't
         seen this on Fedora 22.
