perf report: Implement --sort cpu
In a shared multi-core environment, users want to analyze why their program was slow. In particular, if the code ran slower only on certain CPUs due to interference from other programs or kernel threads, the user should be able to notice that. Sample usage: perf record -f -a -- sleep 3 perf report --sort cpu,comm Workload: program is running on 16 CPUs Experiencing interference from an antagonist only on 4 CPUs. Samples: 106218177676 cycles Overhead CPU Command ........ ... ............... 6.25% 2 program 6.24% 6 program 6.24% 11 program 6.24% 5 program 6.24% 9 program 6.24% 10 program 6.23% 15 program 6.23% 7 program 6.23% 3 program 6.23% 14 program 6.22% 1 program 6.20% 13 program 3.17% 12 program 3.15% 8 program 3.14% 0 program 3.13% 4 program 3.11% 4 antagonist 3.11% 0 antagonist 3.10% 8 antagonist 3.07% 12 antagonist Cc: David S.
