[PATCH 06/29] perf tools: Compare hists comm by addresses

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Mon Nov 04 2013 - 13:07:33 EST


From: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@xxxxxxxxx>

Now that comm strings are allocated only once and refcounted to be shared
among threads, these can now be safely compared by addresses. This
should remove most hists collapses on post processing.
