But it should process and aggregates samples using the field, otherwise samples will be aggregated as if the column was not there resulted in incorrect output. For example, I'd like to set a filter on native_write_msr_safe. The original overhead of the function is negligible. $ perf report | grep native_write_msr_safe 0.00% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] native_write_msr_safe 0.00% perf [kernel.vmlinux] native_write_msr_safe However adding -S option gives different output. $ perf report -S native_write_msr_safe --percentage absolute | \ > grep -e swapper -e perf 51.47% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] 4.14% perf [kernel.vmlinux] Since it aggregated samples using comm and dso only. In fact, the above values are same when it sorts with -s comm,dso. $ perf report -s comm,dso | grep -e swapper -e perf 51.47% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] 4.14% perf [kernel.vmlinux] This resulted in TUI failure with -ERANGE since it tries to increase sample hit count for annotation with wrong symbols due to incorrect aggregation. This patch fixes it not to skip elided fields when comparing samples in order to insert them to the hists.
