perf report: Fix sample type validation for synthesized callchains
Processing instruction tracing data (e.g. Intel PT) can synthesize callchains e.g. $ perf record -e intel_pt//u uname $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige However perf report's callgraph option gets extra validation, so: $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat Error: Selected -g or --branch-history but no callchain data. Did you call 'perf record' without -g? # To display the perf.data header info, # please use --header/--header-only options. # Fix the validation to know about instruction tracing options so above command works. A side-effect of the change is that the default option to accumulate the callchain of child functions comes into force. To get the previous behaviour the --no-children option can be used e.g. $ perf report --stdio --itrace=ige -gflat --no-children Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1443186956-18718-3-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
