2009-06-03perf report: Fix comm sortingPeter Zijlstra1-6/+112
Since we can (and do) change comm strings during the collection phase, we cannot actually sort on them to build the histogram. Therefore add an (optional) third sorting phase to collapse the histrogram. Comm sorting now builds the histrogram on threads and then in the collapse phase collects all threads with the same comm. This collapsed histogram is then reversed and sorted on events.

Include code to pre-construct mappings based on /proc, on system wide recording. Fix the existing code to properly fill out ->pid and ->tid. The PID should be the Thread Group ID (PIDTYPE_PID of task->group_leader) The TID should be the Thread ID (PIDTYPE_PID of task) Furthermore, change the default sorting of report to comm,dso for a better quick overview.

2009-06-02perf_counter tools: Cleanup MakefileMike Galbraith1-68/+73
We currently build perf-stat/record etc, only to do nothing with them. We also install the perf binary in two places, $prefix/bin and $perfexec_instdir, which appears to be for binaries which perf would exec were a command not linked in. Correct this, and comment out broken/incomplete targets dist and coverage.
