"[Program Block Range]" indicates the range of program basic block
(start -> end). If we can find the source line it prints the source line
otherwise it prints the symbol+offset instead.

 v4:
 ---
 Use source lines or symbol+offset to indicate the basic block. It should
 be easier to understand.

 v3:
 ---
 Cast 'struct hist_entry' to 'struct block_hist' in hist_entry__block_fprintf.
 Use symbol_conf.report_block to check if executing hist_entry__block_fprintf.

 v2:
 ---
 Keep standard perf diff format and display the 'Baseline' and
 'Shared Object'.

The output is sorted by "Baseline" and the basic blocks in the same
function are sorted by cycles diff.

      perf diff: Link same basic blocks among different data · f3810817
      Jin Yao authored 
      The target is to compare the performance difference (cycles diff) for
the same basic blocks in different data files.

The same basic block means same function, same start address and same
end address. This patch finds the same basic blocks from different data
files and link them together and resort by the cycles diff.

 v3:
 ---
 The block stuffs are maintained by new structure 'block_hist',
 so this patch is update accordingly.

 v2:
 ---
 Since now the basic block hists is changed to per symbol,
 the patch only links the basic block hists for the same
 symbol in different data files.

      perf diff: Use hists to manage basic blocks per symbol · 99150a1f
      Jin Yao authored 
      The hist__account_cycles() can account cycles per basic block. The basic
block information is saved in cycles_hist structure.

This patch processes each symbol, get basic blocks from cycles_hist and
add the basic block entries to a new hists (in 'struct block_hist').
Using a hists is because we need to compare, sort and print the basic
blocks later.

 v6:
 ---
 Since 'ops' argument is removed from hists__add_entry_block,
 update the code accordingly. No functional change.

 v5:
 ---
 Since now we still carry block_info in 'struct hist_entry'
 we don't need to use our own new/free ops for hist entries.
 And the block_info is released in hist_entry__delete.

 v3:
 ---
 1. In v2, we put block stuffs in 'struct hist_entry', but
 it's not a good design. In v3, we create a new
 'struct block_hist' and cast the 'struct hist_entry' to
 'struct block_hist' in some places, which can avoid adding
 new stuffs in 'struct hist_entry'.

 2. abs() -> labs(), in block_cycles_diff_cmp().

 v2:
 ---
 v1 adds the basic block entries to per data-file hists
 but v2 adds the basic block entries to per symbol hists.
 That is to keep current perf-diff format. Will show the
 result in next patches.

      perf diff: Check if all data files with branch stacks · 30d81553
      Jin Yao authored 
      We will expand perf diff to support diff cycles of individual programs
blocks, so it requires all data files having branch stacks.

This patch checks HEADER_BRANCH_STACK in header, and only set the flag
has_br_stack when HEADER_BRANCH_STACK are set in all data files.

 v2:
 ---
 Move check_file_brstack() from __cmd_diff() to cmd_diff().
 Because later patch will check flag 'has_br_stack' before
 ui_init().

      perf hists: Add block_info in hist_entry · fe96245c
      Jin Yao authored 
      The block_info contains the program basic block information, i.e,
contains the start address and the end address of this basic block and
how much cycles it takes.

We need to compare, sort and even print out the basic block by some
orders, i.e. sort by cycles.

For this purpose, we add block_info field to hist_entry. In order not to
impact current interface, we creates a new function
hists__add_entry_block.

      perf symbol: Create block_info structure · 0cec2447
      Jin Yao authored 
      'perf diff' currently can only diff symbols(functions).

We should expand it to diff cycles of individual programs blocks as
reported by timed LBR.  This would allow to identify changes in specific
code accurately.

We need a new structure to maintain the basic block information, such as,
symbol(function), start/end address of this block, cycles. This patch
creates this structure and with some ops.

      perf stat: Fix group lookup for metric group · 2f87f33f
      Andi Kleen authored 
      The metric group code tries to find a group it added earlier in the
evlist. Fix the lookup to handle groups with partially overlaps
correctly. When a sub string match fails and we reset the match, we have
to compare the first element again.

I also renamed the find_evsel function to find_evsel_group to make its
purpose clearer.

With the earlier changes this fixes:

Before:

  % perf stat -M UPI,IPC sleep 1
  ...
         1,032,922      uops_retired.retire_slots #      1.1 UPI

After:

  % perf stat -M UPI,IPC sleep 1
  ...
        1,013,193      uops_retired.retire_slots #      1.1 UPI

      perf stat: Don't merge events in the same PMU · 6c5f4e5c
      Andi Kleen authored 
      Event merging is mainly to collapse similar events in lots of different
duplicated PMUs.

It can break metric displaying. It's possible for two metrics to have
the same event, and when the two events happen in a row the second
wouldn't be displayed.  This would also not show the second metric.

To avoid this don't merge events in the same PMU. This makes sense, if
we have multiple events in the same PMU there is likely some reason for
it (e.g. using multiple groups) and we better not merge them.

While in theory it would be possible to construct metrics that have
events with the same name in different PMU no current metrics have this
problem.

This is the fix for perf stat -M UPI,IPC (needs also another bug fix to
completely work)

      tools lib: Move argv_{split,free} from tools/perf/util/ · 9c10548c
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      This came from the kernel lib/argv_split.c, so move it to
tools/lib/argv_split.c, to get it closer to the kernel structure.

We need to audit the usage of argv_split() to figure out if it is really
necessary to do have one allocation per argv[] entry, looking at one of
its users I guess that is not the case and we probably are even leaking
those allocations by not using argv_free() judiciously, for later.

With this we further remove stuff from tools/perf/util/, reducing the
perf specific codebase and encouraging other tools/ code to use these
routines so as to keep the style and constructs used with the kernel.

      perf tools: Drop strxfrchar(), use strreplace() equivalent from kernel · af0de0c5
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      No change in behaviour intended, just reducing the codebase and using
something available in tools/lib/.

      tools lib: Adopt strreplace() from the kernel · 2a60689a
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      We'll use it to further reduce the size of tools/perf/util/string.c,
replacing the strxfrchar() equivalent function we have there.

      Cleaning up a bit more tools/perf/util/ by using things we got from the
kernel and have in tools/lib/
