Hello, This patchset implements hierarchy mode with event group. It was disabled due to complexity when I wrote the hierarchy code, but there's no fundamental reason to do it.
* changes in v2) - the first bug fix patch applied to acme/perf/core - update changelog, add Fixes: tags (Arnaldo) - rename print_hierarchy_header For example, following command line used to show each event separately. As event group view is enabled by default, now hierarchy mode shows the two event together like below: $ perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}' make $ perf report --hierarchy --stdio ... # Overhead Command / Shared Object / Symbol # ...................... .................................. # 89.22% 87.73% cc1 80.69% 79.46% cc1 1.41% 2.00% [.] _cpp_lex_direct 1.26% 1.70% [.] bitmap_set_bit 1.11% 1.13% [.] ggc_internal_alloc ... 0.25% 0.01% [kernel.vmlinux] 0.23% 0.01% [k] page_fault 0.01% 0.00% [k] apic_timer_interrupt 0.01% 0.00% [k] entry_SYSCALL_64 ... 5.03% 5.97% as 3.10% 3.84% as 0.14% 0.21% [.] 0x00000000000114f4 0.12% 0.01% [.] 0x0000000000011510 0.04% 0.00% [.] 0x000000000001c639 0.04% 0.00% [.] 0x000000000000cff6 ... 3.32% 3.19% ld 2.34% 2.13% libbfd-2.27.so 0.50% 0.25% [.] bfd_link_hash_traverse 0.42% 0.30% [.] bfd_elf_link_add_symbols 0.41% 0.59% [.] bfd_hash_lookup 0.09% 0.04% [.] bfd_hash_insert ...
