From ae779a630977d93fbebfa06216ea47df5b5c62c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Olsa Date: Sat, 26 Oct 2013 16:25:34 +0200 Subject: perf top: Split -G and --call-graph Splitting -G and --call-graph for record command, so we could use '-G' with no option. The '-G' option now takes NO argument and enables the configured unwind method, which is currently the frame pointers method. It will be possible to configure unwind method via config file in upcoming patches. All current '-G' arguments is overtaken by --call-graph option. NOTE: The documentation for top --call-graph option was wrongly copied from report command.
