Jin Yao 590ac60d8a perf top: Display the LBR stats in callchain entry
'perf report' has supported the displaying of LBR stats (such as cycles,
predicted%) in callchain entry.

For example:

  $ perf report --branch-history --stdio

  --1.01%--intel_idle mwait.h:29
            intel_idle cpufeature.h:164 (cycles:5)
            intel_idle cpufeature.h:164 (predicted:76.4%)
            intel_idle mwait.h:102 (cycles:41)
            intel_idle current.h:15

While 'perf top' doesn't support that.

For example:

  $ perf top -a -b --call-graph branch

  -   13.86%     0.23%  [kernel]		[k] __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
     - 13.65% __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
        + 1.69% do_syscall_64
        + 1.68% do_select
        + 1.41% ktime_get
        + 0.70% __schedule
        + 0.62% do_sys_poll
          0.58% __x86_indirect_thunk_rax

Actually it's very easy to enable this feature in 'perf top'.

With this patch, the result is:

  $ perf top -a -b --call-graph branch

  $ -   13.58%     0.00%  [kernel]		[k] __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
     $ - 13.57% __x86_indirect_thunk_rax (predicted:93.9%)
        $ + 1.78% do_select (cycles:2)
        $ + 1.68% perf_pmu_disable.part.99 (cycles:1)
        $ + 1.45% ___sys_recvmsg (cycles:25)
        $ + 0.81% unix_stream_sendmsg (cycles:18)
        $ + 0.80% ktime_get (cycles:400)
          $ 0.58% pick_next_task_fair (cycles:47)
        $ + 0.56% i915_request_retire (cycles:2)
        $ + 0.52% do_sys_poll (cycles:4)

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
