To improve 'perf diff', implement a --time filter option to diff the samples within given time window. It supports time percent with multiple time ranges. The time string format is 'a%/n,b%/m,...' or 'a%-b%,c%-%d,...'. For example: Select the second 10% time slice to diff: perf diff --time 10%/2 Select from 0% to 10% time slice to diff: perf diff --time 0%-10% Select the first and the second 10% time slices to diff: perf diff --time 10%/1,10%/2 Select from 0% to 10% and 30% to 40% slices to diff: perf diff --time 0%-10%,30%-40% It also supports analysing samples within a given time window <start>,<stop>. Times have the format seconds.microseconds. If 'start' is not given (i.e., time string is ',x.y') then analysis starts at the beginning of the file. If the stop time is not given (i.e, time string is 'x.y,') then analysis goes to end of file. Time string is 'a1.b1,c1.d1:a2.b2,c2.d2'. Use ':' to separate timestamps for different perf.data files. For example, we get the timestamp information from perf script. perf script -i perf.data.old mgen 13940 [000] 3946.361400: ... perf script -i perf.data mgen 13940 [000] 3971.150589 ... perf diff --time 3946.361400,:3971.150589, It analyzes the perf.data.old from the timestamp 3946.361400 to the end of perf.data.old and analyzes the perf.data from the timestamp 3971.150589 to the end of perf.data. v4: --- Update abstime_str_dup(), let it return error if strdup is failed, and update __cmd_diff() accordingly.
