It would be useful to support sorting for all blocks by the
sampled cycles percent per block. This is useful to concentrate
on the globally hottest blocks.
This patch series implements a new sort option "total_cycles" which
sorts all blocks by 'Sampled Cycles%'. The 'Sampled Cycles%' is
block sampled cycles aggregation / total sampled cycles
For example,
perf record -b ./div
perf report -s total_cycles --stdio
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only
options.
#
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 2M of event 'cycles'
# Event count (approx.): 2753248
#
# Sampled Cycles% Sampled Cycles Avg Cycles% Avg Cycles

This patch series supports both stdio and tui. And also with the supporting
of --percent-limit.

Rebase to perf/core branch
Jin Yao (5):
perf util: Create new block.h/block.c for block related functions
perf util: Count the total cycles of all samples
perf report: Sort by sampled cycles percent per block for stdio
perf report: Support --percent-limit for total_cycles
perf report: Sort by sampled cycles percent per block for tui
