Currently perf-stat supports to print counts at regular interval (-I),
but it's not very easy for user to get the overall statistics.

With this patchset, it supports to report the summary at the end of
interval output.

For example,

root@kbl-ppc:~# perf stat -e cycles -I1000 --interval-count 2
# time counts unit events
1.000412064 2,281,114 cycles
2.001383658 2,547,880 cycles

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

4,828,994 cycles

2.002860349 seconds time elapsed

root@kbl-ppc:~# perf stat -e cycles,instructions -I1000 --interval-count 2
# time counts unit events
1.000389902 1,536,093 cycles
1.000389902 420,226 instructions # 0.27 insn per cycle
2.001433453 2,213,952 cycles
2.001433453 735,465 instructions # 0.33 insn per cycle

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

3,750,045 cycles
1,155,691 instructions # 0.31 insn per cycle

2.003023361 seconds time elapsed

root@kbl-ppc:~# perf stat -M CPI,IPC -I1000 --interval-count 2
# time counts unit events
1.000435121 905,303 inst_retired.any # 2.9 CPI
1.000435121 2,663,333 cycles
1.000435121 914,702 inst_retired.any # 0.3 IPC

Jin Yao (2):
perf evsel: Create counts for collecting summary data
perf stat: Report summary for interval mode

good idea, but I can't apply this on latest Arnaldo's perf/core,
could you please rebase?

thanks,
jirka


Oh, yes, it couldn't be applied on perf/core. I've rebased it.

Thanks
