Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo fabd37b837 perf hists: Check if a hist_entry has callchains before using them
So far if we use 'perf record -g' this will make
symbol_conf.use_callchain 'true' and logic will assume that all events
have callchains enabled, but ever since we added the possibility of
setting up callchains for some events (e.g.: -e
cycles/call-graph=dwarf/) while not for others, we limit usage scenarios
by looking at that symbol_conf.use_callchain global boolean, we better
look at each event attributes.

On the road to that we need to look if a hist_entry has callchains, that
is, to go from hist_entry->hists to the evsel that contains it, to then
look at evsel->sample_type for PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN.

The next step is to add a symbol_conf.ignore_callchains global, to use
in the places where what we really want to know is if callchains should
be ignored, even if present.

Then -g will mean just to select a callchain mode to be applied to all
events not explicitely setting some other callchain mode, i.e. a default
callchain mode, and --no-call-graph will set
symbol_conf.ignore_callchains with that clear intention.

That too will at some point become a per evsel thing, that tools can set
for all or just a few of its evsels.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
