Hi Jiri, About the patch below, can't this be solved by using a regex instead of a simple substring search instead of adding a new command line option?
- Arnaldo commit 5b42ff035ec784c5c42c4a6bb9e7fada882f097e Author: Jiri Olsa <jo...@redhat.com> Date: Tue Jun 18 18:31:50 2013 +0200 perf tools: Introduce new -P/--parent-deep report option Introducing new -P/--parent-deep report option. It does the same as '-p' but it force the deep search of the callchain and looks for the deepest possible match. The -p option searches for the first match of the parent pattern in the callchain. $ perf report -i perf.data.delete -p perf_session__delete -s parent + 99.51% [other] + 0.46% perf_session__delete_dead_threads + 0.03% perf_session__delete + 0.00% perf_session__delete_threads so we got multiple 'different' matches instancies, while they all belong under perf_session__delete function: $ perf report -i perf.data.delete -P perf_session__delete -s parent + 99.51% [other] + 0.49% perf_session__delete NOTE the 'p' vs 'P' difference in above commands above. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
