With the '--group' option, even for non-explicit group, perf annotate
will enable the group output.
For example,
perf record -e cycles,branches ./div
perf annotate main --stdio --group
: Disassembly of section .text:
:
: 00000000004004b0 <main>:
: main():
:
: return i;
: }
:
: int main(void)
: {
0.00 0.00 : 4004b0: push %rbx
: int i;
: int flag;
: volatile double x = 1212121212, y =
121212;
:
: s_randseed = time(0);
0.00 0.00 : 4004b1: xor %edi,%edi
: srand(s_randseed);
0.00 0.00 : 4004b3: mov $0x77359400,%ebx
:
: return i;
: }
:
But if without --group, there is only one event reported.
perf annotate main --stdio
: Disassembly of section .text:
:
: 00000000004004b0 <main>:
: main():
:
: return i;
: }
:
: int main(void)
: {
0.00 : 4004b0: push %rbx
: int i;
: int flag;
: volatile double x = 1212121212, y = 121212;
:
: s_randseed = time(0);
0.00 : 4004b1: xor %edi,%edi
: srand(s_randseed);
0.00 : 4004b3: mov $0x77359400,%ebx
:
: return i;
: }
