The user/app which wants to allocate its own hist_entry sub object provides following ops struct: struct hist_entry_ops *ops { void* (*new)(size_t); void (*free)(void *); } via new interface function: struct hist_entry * hists__add_entry_ops(struct hists *hists, struct hist_entry_ops *ops, ... I'm using this for c2c code to enlarge hist_entry object with large stats structure, which has no use to standard perf usage/commands. It might be used to lower the hist_entry footproint for default perf usage by uing this for things like hierarchy output that adds extra stuff into hist_entry object.
