[PATCH] perf: Add a new sort order: SORT_INCLUSIVE (v5)

From: Arun Sharma
Date: Thu Mar 15 2012 - 13:34:49 EST


Each entry that used to get added once to the histogram, now is added
chain->nr times, each time with one less entry in the
callchain.

This will result in a non-leaf function that appears in a lot of
samples to get a histogram entry with lots of hits.

The user can then drill down into the callchains of functions that
have high inclusive times.

Sample command lines:

$ perf record -ag -- sleep 1
$ perf report -g graph,0.5,callee -n -s inclusive
