Caching registers value into an array. Got about 4% speed up
of perf_reg_value function for report command processing
dwarf unwind stacks.
Output from report over 1.5 GB data with DWARF unwind stacks:
(TODO fix perf diff)
current code:
5.84% perf perf [.] perf_reg_value
change:
1.94% perf perf [.] perf_reg_value
And little bit of overall speed up:
(perf stat -r 5 -e '{cycles,instructions}:u' ...)
current code:
310,298,611,754 cycles ( +- 0.33% )
439,669,689,341 instructions ( +- 0.03% )
188.656753166 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.82% )
change:

perf callchain: Separate perf_reg_value function in perf_regs object2014-02-18T12:34:49+00:00Jiri Olsajolsa@redhat.com2014-01-07T12:47:29+00:00urn:sha1:c9b951c4d12f0b2e9a07dd459c554bc05628d092
Making perf_reg_value function global (formely reg_value), because it's
going to be used globaly across all code providing the dwarf post unwind
feature.
Changing its prototype to be generic:
-int reg_value(unw_word_t *valp, struct regs_dump *regs, int id)
+int perf_reg_value(u64 *valp, struct regs_dump *regs, int id);
Changing the valp type from libunwind specific 'unw_word_t' to u64.
