Subject[PATCH V2 3/3] perf tools: Construct LBR call chain
Date
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

LBR call stack only has user callchain. It is output as
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK data format. For the kernel callchain, it's
still from PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN.
The perf tool has to handle both data sources to construct a
complete callstack.
For perf report -D option, both lbr and fp information will be
displayed.
