      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Just use a left arrow prefixing retqs.

      Using up/down arrows just before the instruction, replacing the actual chars
      with approximations to avoid mail encoding snafus:

          0.00 |      leaveq
          0.00 |      retq
      
      Next low hanging fruit is to use left arrow for retqs, then work on clearling
      marking loops.

      perf annotate browser: Suppress the callq address · d2232885
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
          0.00 |       callq  ffffffff8112f190 <__mod_zone_page_state>
      
      Becomes:
      
          0.00 |       callq  __mod_zone_page_state
      
      But if you press 'o' it gets verbose, i.e. as in objdump -dS:

      We need to cope with things like:
      
      $ objdump  -d --no-show-raw -S -C /lib/modules/3.4.0-rc2+/build/vmlinux

       * eax uncopied bytes or 0 if successful.
       */

      	CFI_STARTPROC
      	cmpl $8,%edx
      ffffffff8125ec60:	cmp    $0x8,%edx
      	jb 20f		/* less then 8 bytes, go to byte copy loop */
      ffffffff8125ec63:	jb     ffffffff8125ecf5 <copy_user_generic_unrolled+0x95>
      	ALIGN_DESTINATION
      <SNIP>
      ffffffff8125ec8d:	je     ffffffff8125ecd9 <copy_user_generic_unrolled+0x79>

      ffffffff8125ec8f:	mov    (%rsi),%r8
      2:	movq 1*8(%rsi),%r9
      ffffffff8125ec92:	mov    0x8(%rsi),%r9
      3:	movq 2*8(%rsi),%r10
      ffffffff8125ec96:	mov    0x10(%rsi),%r10
      4:	movq 3*8(%rsi),%r11
      
      <SNIP>
      
      Probably expect that the length of the addr field be the same...
      
      Lazy move for now, back to supporting suppressing the address on callq lines...

      So that the ins_ops can handle them in a single place, instead of adding
      more and more functions or ins_ops parameters.

      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
      
      Fixes and improvements for perf/core:
      
      . Overhaul the tools/ makefiles, gluing them to the top level Makefile, from
        Borislav Petkov.
      
      . Move the UI files from tools/perf/util/ui/ to tools/perf/ui/. Also move
        the GTK+ browser to tools/perf/ui/gtk/, from Namhyung Kim.
      
      . Only fallback to sw cycles counter on ENOENT for the hw cycles, from
        Robert Richter
      
      . Trivial fixes from Robert Richter
      
      . Handle the autogenerated bison/flex files better, from Namhyung and Jiri Olsa.
      
      . Navigate jump instructions in the annotate browser, just press enter or ->,
        still needs support for a jump navigation history, i.e. to go back.
      
      . Search string in the annotate browser: same keys as vim:
           / forward
           n next backward/forward
           ? backward
      
      . Clarify number of events/samples in the report header, from Ashay Rane
