Thanks, with this the --stdio output matches --tui when --branch-history
is used in 'report', will push soon.

One thing I think would be great would be to make it possible to use:

  [root@zoo acme]# perf probe -L get_vma_policy

        3         struct mempolicy *pol = get_task_policy(task);
           
        5         if (vma) {
        6                 if (vma->vm_ops && vma->vm_ops->get_policy) {
        7                         struct mempolicy *vpol = 
vma->vm_ops->get_policy(vma,

        9                         if (vpol)
                                          pol = vpol;
       11                 } else if (vma->vm_policy) {
                                  pol = vma->vm_policy;
         
                                  /*

       20                         if (mpol_needs_cond_ref(pol))
       21                                 mpol_get(pol);

                  }
                  if (!pol)
                          pol = &default_policy;
                  return pol;
       27  }
         
  [root@zoo acme]#

Together with the srcline code, i.e. to allow matching the above with
the output from 'perf report', like here:

See the get_vma_policy lines? We need a way to ask both for 'perf probe -L' to
show absolute line numbers and also for the report code to show line numbers as
offsets from function start.

At some point being able to, as IIRC Andi suggested, to show the callchains via
the annotate widget would be fantastic as well, i.e. showing the callchain in a
window and in another window to show it as arrows in the source code, that
would move from function to function as we navigate on the callchain, as we
do already with jumps, calls, rets.

But the absolute line numbers on 'perf probe -L' and the offsets from function
start in 'report' look like low hanging fruits and a way to integrate further
'perf probe' with 'perf report', because both will look at the right file, keyed
by the build-id, etc.
