nice. probably more complex example that computes the delta of the pmu counters on the kernel side would be even more interesting. Do you think you can extend 'perf stat' with a flag that does stats collection for a given kernel or user function instead of the whole process ? Then we can use perf record/report to figure out hot functions and follow with 'perf stat -f my_hot_func my_process' to drill into particular function stats. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
