[PATCH v6 3/7] perf util: Compare two streams

Jin Yao
2020-09-11T08:04:45Z

Stream is the branch history which is aggregated by the branch
records from perf samples. Now we support the callchain as
stream.

If the callchain entries of one stream are fully matched with
the callchain entries of another stream, we think two streams
are matched.

For example,

cycles: 1, hits: 26.80% cycles: 1, hits: 27.30%
----------------------- -----------------------
main div.c:39 main div.c:39
main div.c:44 main div.c:44

Above two streams are matched (we don't consider the case that
source code is changed).

The matching logic is, compare the chain string first. If it's not
matched, fallback to dso address comparison.
