perf mem: Show absolute percent in mem_stat output
Currently the output sums up to 100% for each entry. But it can be confusing when it's displayed with 'overhead'. Before: $ perf mem report -F overhead,sample,cache,comm ... # -------------- Cache -------------- # Overhead Samples L1 L2 L3 L1-buf Other Command # ........ ............ ................................... ............... # 25.38% 517 34.6% 0.0% 15.8% 23.3% 26.2% swapper 9.03% 239 35.4% 0.8% 9.1% 22.1% 32.6% chrome 8.61% 233 45.3% 1.2% 8.9% 22.7% 21.9% Chrome_ChildIOT 7.81% 189 33.6% 0.4% 5.5% 35.9% 24.6% Isolated Web Co 3.73% 103 40.4% 0.3% 2.7% 39.4% 17.2% gnome-shell Let's convert it to use absolute percent value so that it can add up to the overhead for that entry. After: # -------------- Cache -------------- # Overhead Samples L1 L2 L3 L1-buf Other Command # ........ ............ ................................... ............... # 25.38% 517 8.8% 0.0% 4.0% 5.9% 6.7% swapper 9.03% 239 3.2% 0.1% 0.8% 2.0% 2.9% chrome 8.61% 233 3.9% 0.1% 0.8% 2.0% 1.9% Chrome_ChildIOT 7.81% 189 2.6% 0.0% 0.4% 2.8% 1.9% Isolated Web Co 3.73% 103 1.5% 0.0% 0.1% 1.5% 0.6% gnome-shell This aligns well with the existing 'mem' sort key. $ perf mem report -s comm,mem -H ... # # Overhead Samples Command / Memory access # ......................... .......................................... # 25.38% 517 swapper 8.78% 150 L1 hit 6.66% 72 RAM hit 5.92% 137 LFB/MAB hit 4.02% 157 L3 hit 0.00% 1 L3 miss 9.03% 239 chrome 3.19% 117 L1 hit 2.94% 35 RAM hit 1.99% 48 LFB/MAB hit 0.82% 32 L3 hit 0.08% 5 L2 hit 0.00% 2 L3 miss We can add an option or a config to change the setting later.
