    perf report: Don't bother locking when adding hist entries · f3dd1981
    Namhyung Kim 提交于
    The 'perf report'command is single-threaded, so no need to grab a lock.
    
    Although the fast path of pthread_mutex_[un]lock() is very fast, there's
    a ~3% gain by eliminating it when we have huge sample data.
    
      $ perf record -a -F 100000 -o perf.data.bench -- perf bench sched all
      $ perf record -e cycles:upp -o perf.data.before -- \
      > perf report -i perf.data.bench --stdio > /dev/null
      ... apply this patch ...
      $ perf record -e cycles:upp -o perf.data.after -- \
      > perf report -i perf.data.bench --stdio > /dev/null
      $ perf diff perf.data.{before,after} | grep pthread
