Several tools (top, kvm) don't need to be called back to process each of
the syntheiszed records, instead relying on the machine__process_event
function to change the per machine data structures that represent
threads and mmaps, so provide a way to ask for this common idiom.

When perf_event_attr.mmap_data is set the kernel will generate
PERF_RECORD_MMAP events when non-exec (data, SysV mem) mmaps are
created, so we need to synthesize from /proc/pid/maps for existing
threads, as we do for exec mmaps.
Right now just 'perf record' does it, but any other tool that uses
perf_event__synthesize_thread(s|map) can request it.

When callgraph data was included in the perf data file, it may take a
long time to scan all those data and merge them together especially if
the stored callchains are long and the perf data file itself is large,
like a Gbyte or so.
The callchain stack is currently limited to PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127).
This is a large value. Usually the callgraph data that developers are
most interested in are the first few levels, the rests are usually not
looked at.
This patch adds a new --max-stack option to perf-report to limit the
depth of callchain stack data to look at to reduce the time it takes for
perf-report to finish its processing. It trades the presence of trailing
stack information with faster speed.
The following table shows the elapsed time of doing perf-report on a
perf.data file of size 985,531,828 bytes.

Annotation with /proc/kcore is possible so the logic is adjusted to
allow it. The main difference is that /proc/kcore had no symbols so the

The other difference is that objdump cannot always read from kcore.

For example, in an application with an expensive function implemented
with deeply nested recursive calls, the default call-graph presentation
is dominated by the different callchains within that function. By
ignoring these callees, we can collect the callchains leading into the
function and compactly identify what to blame for expensive calls.
For example, in this report the callers of garbage_collect() are
scattered across the tree:
$ perf report -d ruby 2>- | grep -m10 ^[^#]*[a-z]
22.03% ruby [.] gc_mark
--- gc_mark
|--59.40%-- mark_keyvalue
| st_foreach
| gc_mark_children
| |--99.75%-- rb_gc_mark
| | rb_vm_mark
| | gc_mark_children
| | gc_marks
| | |--99.00%-- garbage_collect
If we ignore the callees of garbage_collect(), its callers are coalesced:
$ perf report --ignore-callees garbage_collect -d ruby 2>- | grep -m10 ^[^#]*[a-z]
72.92% ruby [.] garbage_collect
--- garbage_collect
vm_xmalloc
|--47.08%-- ruby_xmalloc
| st_insert2
| rb_hash_aset
| |--98.45%-- features_index_add
| | rb_provide_feature
| | rb_require_safe

Currently we have symbol_conf.exclude_other being set as true every time
so the -x/--exclude-other has nothing to do.
Also we have no way to see the data with symbol_conf.exclude_other being
false which is useful sometimes.
Fixing it by making symbol_conf.exclude_other false by default.
1) Example without -x option:
$ perf report -i perf.data.delete -p perf_session__delete -s parent
+ 99.91% [other]
+ 0.08% perf_session__delete
+ 0.00% perf_session__delete_dead_threads
+ 0.00% perf_session__delete_threads
2) Example with -x option:
$ ./perf report -i perf.data.delete -p perf_session__delete -s parent -x
+ 96.22% perf_session__delete
+ 1.89% perf_session__delete_dead_threads
+ 1.89% perf_session__delete_threads
In Example 1) we get the sorted out data together with the rest
"[other]". This could help us estimate how much time we spent in the
sorted data.
In Example 2) the total is just the sorted data.

Those _threaded() functions are needed to make hist tree handling
thread-safe, but AFAICS the only thing it does is forcing it to use
the intermediate 'collapsed' tree.
This can be acheived by setting sort__need_collapse to 1 in cmd_top() so
no need to keep those _threaded() variants.

The -E/--entries option controls how many lines to be printed on stdio
output but it doesn't work as it should be:
If -E option is specified, print that many lines regardless of current
window size, if not automatically adjust number of lines printed to fit
into the window size.

perf record has a new option -W that enables weightened sampling.
Add sorting support in top/report for the average weight per sample and the
total weight sum. This allows to both compare relative cost per event
and the total cost over the measurement period.
Add the necessary glue to perf report, record and the library.
v2: Merge with new hist refactoring.
v3: Fix manpage. Remove value check.
Rename global_weight to weight and weight to local_weight.
v4: Readd sort keys to manpage
v5: Move weight to end
v6: Move weight to template
v7: Rename weight key.
Original patch from Andi modified by Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com>

Currently the setup_sorting() is called for parsing sort keys and exits
if it failed to add the sort key. As it's included in libperf it'd be
better returning an error code rather than exiting application inside of
the library.
