Currently perf-annotate with --print-line can print -nan(0x8000000000000) because of division by zero when calculating percent. The division by zero happen when a sum of samples is zero in symbol__get_source_line(), so fix it.
For examples, After running 'perf record' like below, $ perf record -e "{cycles,page-faults,branch-misses}" ./a.out Before: $ perf annotate --stdio -l Sorted summary for file /home/taeung/workspace/a.out ---------------------------------------------- 32.89 -nan 7.04 a.c:38 25.14 -nan 0.00 a.c:34 16.26 -nan 56.34 a.c:31 15.88 -nan 1.41 a.c:37 5.67 -nan 0.00 a.c:39 1.13 -nan 35.21 a.c:26 0.95 -nan 0.00 a.c:44 0.57 -nan 0.00 a.c:32 Percent | Source code & Disassembly of a.out for cycles (529 samples) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- : ... a.c:26 0.57 -nan 4.23 : 40081a: mov %edi,-0x24(%rbp) a.c:26 0.00 -nan 9.86 : 40081d: mov %rsi,-0x30(%rbp) ... However, if a sum of samples is zero (e.g. 'page-faults'), skip calculating percent.
