perf report: Add --skip-empty option to suppress 0 event stat
To make the output more readable, I think it's better to remove 0's in the output. Also the dummy event has no event stats so it just wasts the space. Let's use the --skip-empty option to suppress it. $ perf report --stat --skip-empty Aggregated stats: TOTAL events: 16530 MMAP events: 226 COMM events: 1596 EXIT events: 2 THROTTLE events: 121 UNTHROTTLE events: 117 FORK events: 1595 SAMPLE events: 719 MMAP2 events: 12147 CGROUP events: 2 FINISHED_ROUND events: 2 THREAD_MAP events: 1 CPU_MAP events: 1 TIME_CONV events: 1 cycles stats: SAMPLE events: 719 Reviewed-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210427013717.1651674-5-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
