perf diff: Use perf_session__fprintf_hists just like 'perf record'
That means that almost everything you can do with 'perf report' can be done with 'perf diff', for instance: $ perf record -f find / > /dev/null [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.062 MB perf.data (~2699 samples) ] $ perf record -f find / > /dev/null [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.062 MB perf.data (~2687 samples) ] perf diff | head -8 9.02% +1.00% find libc-2.10.1.so [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal 2.91% -1.00% find [kernel] [k] __kmalloc 2.85% -1.00% find [kernel] [k] ext4_htree_store_dirent 1.99% -1.00% find [kernel] [k] _atomic_dec_and_lock 2.44% find [kernel] [k] half_md4_transform $ So if you want to zoom into libc: $ perf diff --dsos libc-2.10.1.so | head -8 37.34% find [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal 10.34% find [.] __GI_memmove 8.25% +2.00% find [.] _int_malloc 5.07% -1.00% find [.] __GI_mempcpy 7.62% +2.00% find [.] _int_free $ And if there were multiple commands using libc, it is also possible to aggregate them all by using --sort symbol: $ perf diff --dsos libc-2.10.1.so --sort symbol | head -8 37.34% [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal 10.34% [.] __GI_memmove 8.25% +2.00% [.] _int_malloc 5.07% -1.00% [.] __GI_mempcpy 7.62% +2.00% [.] _int_free $ The displacement column now is off by default, to use it: perf diff -m --dsos libc-2.10.1.so --sort symbol | head -8 37.34% [.] _IO_vfprintf_internal 10.34% [.] __GI_memmove 8.25% +2.00% [.] _int_malloc 5.07% -1.00% +2 [.] __GI_mempcpy 7.62% +2.00% -1 [.] _int_free $ Using -t/--field-separator can be used for scripting: $ perf diff -t, -m --dsos libc-2.10.1.so --sort symbol | head -8 37.34, , ,[.] _IO_vfprintf_internal 10.34, , ,[.] __GI_memmove 8.25,+2.00%, ,[.] _int_malloc 5.07,-1.00%, +2,[.] __GI_mempcpy 7.62,+2.00%, -1,[.] _int_free 6.99,+1.00%, -1,[.] _IO_new_file_xsputn 1.89,-2.00%, +4,[.] __readdir64 $ Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> LKML-Reference: <1260978567-550-1-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
