[PATCH 17/34] perf, tools: Add support for weight v2

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Thu Oct 18 2012 - 19:20:30 EST


From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

perf record has a new option -W that enables weightened sampling.

Add sorting support in top/report for the average weight per sample and the
total weight sum. This allows to both compare relative cost per event
and the total cost over the measurement period.

Add the necessary glue to perf report, record and the library.

v2: Merge with new hist refactoring.
Rename global_weight to weight and weight to local_weight.
Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
