So it seems to be working, what am I missing? Is this strictly non
group related?

Yes, it is non group related.
This problem occurs only when different events need to be recorded at
the same time, i.e.:
perf record -e branch-misses -e branch-instructions -a sleep 1

The output results of perf script and perf annotate do not match.
Some events are not output in perf annotate.

Yeah I think it's related to sort keys.  The code works with a single
hist_entry for each event and symbol.  But the default sort key
creates multiple entries for different threads and it causes the
confusion.

Yes, After revome zfree from hists__find_annotations, the output of perf annotate is repeated, which is related to sort keys.

The original problem is that notes->src may correspond to multiple sample events. Therefore, we cannot simply zfree notes->src to avoid repeated output.

Arnaldo, is there any problem with this patch? :)
