perf report: Print percentage of each event statistics

2021-04-29T13:30:59+00:00

It's sometimes useful to see how many samples vs other events in the
data file with percent values.

  $ perf report --stat

  Aggregated stats:
             TOTAL events:      20064
              MMAP events:        239  ( 1.2%)
              COMM events:       1518  ( 7.6%)
              EXIT events:          1  ( 0.0%)
              FORK events:       1517  ( 7.6%)
            SAMPLE events:       4015  (20.0%)
             MMAP2 events:      12769  (63.6%)
    FINISHED_ROUND events:          2  ( 0.0%)
        THREAD_MAP events:          1  ( 0.0%)
           CPU_MAP events:          1  ( 0.0%)
         TIME_CONV events:          1  ( 0.0%)
  cycles stats:
            SAMPLE events:       2475
  instructions stats:
            SAMPLE events:       1540

perf report: Add --skip-empty option to suppress 0 event stat

2021-04-29T13:30:59+00:00

To make the output more readable, I think it's better to remove 0's in
the output.  Also the dummy event has no event stats so it just wasts
the space.  Let's use the --skip-empty option to suppress it.

  $ perf report --stat --skip-empty

  Aggregated stats:
             TOTAL events:      16530
              MMAP events:        226
              COMM events:       1596
              EXIT events:          2
          THROTTLE events:        121
        UNTHROTTLE events:        117
              FORK events:       1595
            SAMPLE events:        719
             MMAP2 events:      12147
            CGROUP events:          2
    FINISHED_ROUND events:          2
        THREAD_MAP events:          1
           CPU_MAP events:          1
         TIME_CONV events:          1
  cycles stats:
            SAMPLE events:        719

perf hists: Split hists_stats from events_stats

2021-04-29T13:30:58+00:00

Each struct hists have events_stats but most of the fields were not
used.  It's to count number of samples and periods whether filtered or
not.  And other fields are used only by evlist.

So it'd be better to split hists_stats and events_stats to reduce
wasted memory in the struct hists.  This makes the output of event
statistics in the perf report compact by skipping 0 events in each
evsel/hists.

perf annotate: Show full source location with 'l' hotkey

2021-03-06T19:42:31+00:00

Right now, when Line numbers are displayed, one can't easily find a
source file that the line corresponds to.

When a source line is selected and 'l' is pressed, full source file
location is displayed in perf UI footer line. The hotkey works only for
source code lines.
