Subject[PATCH/RFC 0/4] perf annotate: Add --source-only option and the new source code TUI view
Date
Hi,

The --source-only option and new source code TUI view can show
the result of performance analysis based on full source code per symbol(function).
(Namhyung Kim told me this idea and it was also requested by others some time ago..)

If someone wants to see the cause, he/she will need to dig into the asm.
But before that, looking at the source level can give a hint or clue
for the problem.

For example, if target symbol is 'hex2u64' of util/util.c,
the output is like below.

$ perf annotate --source-only --stdio -s hex2u64
Percent | Source code of util.c for cycles:ppp (42 samples)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
0.00 : 354 * While we find nice hex chars, build a long_val.
0.00 : 355 * Return number of chars processed.
0.00 : 356 */
0.00 : 357 int hex2u64(const char *ptr, u64 *long_val)
2.38 : 358 {
2.38 : 359 const char *p = ptr;
0.00 : 360 *long_val = 0;
0.00 : 361
30.95 : 362 while (*p) {
23.81 : 363 const int hex_val = hex(*p);
0.00 : 364
14.29 : 365 if (hex_val < 0)
0.00 : 366 break;
0.00 : 367
26.19 : 368 *long_val = (*long_val << 4) | hex_val;
0.00 : 369 p++;
0.00 : 370 }
0.00 : 371
0.00 : 372 return p - ptr;
0.00 : 373 }

And I added many perf developers into Cc: because I want to listen to your opinions
about this new feature, if you don't mind.

If you give some feedback, I'd appreciate it! :)

Thanks,
Taeung
