perf report: Add --symbols parameter
So that we can filter by symbol name. The 'pfunct' utility in the 'dwarves' package can be used to create a file with the functions one wants. Example: [acme@doppio pahole]$ pfunct /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so.debug | grep dwarf > /tmp/dwarf.symbols [acme@doppio pahole]$ wc -l /tmp/dwarf.symbols 93 /tmp/dwarf.symbols [acme@doppio pahole]$ head -3 /tmp/dwarf.symbols dwfl_addrdwarf dwfl_module_getdwarf dwfl_getdwarf [acme@doppio pahole]$ perf report --sort comm,dso,symbol --comms pahole --dsos /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so --symbols file:///tmp/dwarf.symbols 33.99% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_tag 29.07% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_decl_file 27.71% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_getsrclines 4.54% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so 0x00000000007400 3.93% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_decl_line 0.46% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_getlocation 0.18% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] __libdwarf_next_prime 0.13% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_diecu [acme@doppio pahole]$ Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> LKML-Reference: <1246399282-20934-4-git-send-email-acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
