perf report: Fix wrong LBR block sorting
When '--total-cycles' is specified, it supports sorting for all blocks by 'Sampled Cycles%'. This is useful to concentrate on the globally hottest blocks. 'Sampled Cycles%' - block sampled cycles aggregation / total sampled cycles But in current code, it doesn't use the cycles aggregation. Part of 'cycles' counting is possibly dropped for some overlap jumps. But for identifying the hot block, we always need the full cycles. # perf record -b ./triad_loop # perf report --total-cycles --stdio Before: # # Sampled Cycles% Sampled Cycles Avg Cycles% Avg Cycles [Program Block Range] Shared Object # ............... .............. ........... .......... ............................................................. ................. # 0.81% 793 4.32% 793 [setup-vdso.h:34 -> setup-vdso.h:40] ld-2.27.so 0.49% 480 0.87% 160 [native_write_msr+0 -> native_write_msr+16] [kernel.kallsyms] 0.48% 476 0.52% 95 [native_read_msr+0 -> native_read_msr+29] [kernel.kallsyms] 0.31% 303 1.65% 303 [nmi_restore+0 -> nmi_restore+37] [kernel.kallsyms] 0.26% 255 1.39% 255 [nohz_balance_exit_idle+75 -> nohz_balance_exit_idle+162] [kernel.kallsyms] 0.24% 234 1.28% 234 [end_repeat_nmi+67 -> end_repeat_nmi+83] [kernel.kallsyms] 0.23% 227 1.24% 227 [__irqentry_text_end+96 -> __irqentry_text_end+126] [kernel.kallsyms] 0.20% 194 1.06% 194 [native_set_debugreg+52 -> native_set_debugreg+56] [kernel.kallsyms] 0.11% 106 0.14% 26 [native_sched_clock+0 -> native_sched_clock+98] [kernel.kallsyms] 0.10% 97 0.53% 97 [trigger_load_balance+0 -> trigger_load_balance+67] [kernel.kallsyms] 0.09% 85 0.46% 85 [get-dynamic-info.h:102 -> get-dynamic-info.h:111] ld-2.27.so ... 0.00% 92.7K 0.02% 4 [triad_loop.c:64 -> triad_loop.c:65] triad_loop The hottest block '[triad_loop.c:64 -> triad_loop.c:65]' is not at the top of output.
