Callchains have markers inside their capture to tell we enter a context (kernel, user, ...). Those are not displayed in the callchains but they are incidentally an active part of the radix tree where callchains are stored, just like any other address. If we have the two following callchains: addr1 -> addr2 -> user context -> addr3 addr1 -> addr2 -> user context -> addr4 addr1 -> addr2 -> addr 5 This is pretty common if addr1 and addr2 are part of an interrupt path, addr3 and addr4 are user addresses and addr5 is a kernel non interrupt path. This will be stored as follows in the tree: addr1 addr2 / \ / addr5 user context / \ addr3 addr4 But we ignore the context markers in the report, hence the addr3 and addr4 will appear as orphan branches: |--28.30%-- hrtimer_interrupt | smp_apic_timer_interrupt | apic_timer_interrupt | | <------------- here, no parent! | | | | | |--11.11%-- 0x7fae7bccb875 | | | | | |--11.11%-- 0xffffffffff60013b | | | | | |--11.11%-- __pthread_mutex_lock_internal | | | | | |--11.11%-- __errno_location Fix this by removing the context markers when we process the callchains to the tree.
