Hi,

Thanks so much for trying this patch.

The branch statistics is printed at the end of perf report --stdio.

For example, on my machine,

root@skl:/tmp# perf record -j any,save_type kill
. . . . . .

For more details see kill(1).
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.011 MB perf.data (1 samples) ]

root@skl:/tmp# perf report --stdio
# To display the perf.data header info, please use
--header/--header-only options.
#
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 3 of event 'cycles'
# Event count (approx.): 3
#
# Overhead Command Source Shared Object Source Symbol
Target Symbol Basic Block Cycles
# ........ ....... .................... ............................
............................ ..................
#
33.33% perf [kernel.vmlinux] [k]
__intel_pmu_enable_all [k] native_write_msr 10
33.33% perf [kernel.vmlinux] [k]
intel_pmu_lbr_enable_all [k] __intel_pmu_enable_all 4
33.33% perf [kernel.vmlinux] [k]
native_write_msr [k] intel_pmu_lbr_enable_all -


#
# (Tip: Show current config key-value pairs: perf config --list)
#

#
# Branch Statistics:
#
CROSS_4K: 100.0%
CALL: 33.3%
RET: 66.7%

Thanks
Jin Yao
