perf report: Adjust column width to the values sampled
Auto-adjust column width of perf report output to the
longest occuring string length.
Example:
[acme@doppio pahole]$ perf report --sort comm,dso,symbol | head -13
12.79% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] __libdw_find_attr
8.90% pahole /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so [.] _int_malloc
8.68% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] __libdw_form_val_len
8.15% pahole /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so [.] __GI_strcmp
6.80% pahole /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so [.] __tsearch
5.54% pahole ./build/libdwarves.so.1.0.0 [.] tag__recode_dwarf_type
[acme@doppio pahole]$
[acme@doppio pahole]$ perf report --sort comm,dso,symbol -d /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so | head -10
21.92% pahole /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so [.] _int_malloc
20.08% pahole /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so [.] __GI_strcmp
16.75% pahole /lib64/libc-2.10.1.so [.] __tsearch
[acme@doppio pahole]$
Also add these extra options to control the new behaviour:
-w, --field-width
Force each column width to the provided list, for large terminal
readability.
-t, --field-separator:
Use a special separator character and don't pad with spaces, replacing
all occurances of this separator in symbol names (and other output) with
a '.' character, that thus it's the only non valid separator.
