perf tools: Support for DWARF mode callchain
This patch enables perf to use the DWARF unwind code. It extends the perf record '-g' option with following arguments: 'fp' - provides framepointer based user stack backtrace 'dwarf[,size]' - provides DWARF (libunwind) based user stack backtrace. The size specifies the size of the user stack dump. If omitted it is 8192 by default. If libunwind is found during the perf build, then the 'dwarf' argument becomes available for record command. The 'fp' stays as default option in any case. Examples: (perf compiled with libunwind) perf record -g dwarf ls - provides dwarf unwind with 8192 as stack dump size perf record -g dwarf,4096 ls - provides dwarf unwind with 4096 as stack dump size perf record -g -- ls perf record -g fp ls - provides frame pointer unwind Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Original-patch-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: "Frank Ch.
