perf tools: Bind callchains to the first sort dimension column
Currently, the callchains are displayed using a constant left
margin. So depending on the current sort dimension
configuration, callchains may appear to be well attached to the
first sort dimension column field which is mostly the case,
except when the first dimension of sorting is done by comm,
because these are right aligned.
This patch binds the callchain to the first letter in the first
column, whatever type of column it is (dso, comm, symbol).
Before:
0.80% perf [k] __lock_acquire
__lock_acquire
lock_acquire
|
|--58.33%-- _spin_lock
| |
| |--28.57%-- inotify_should_send_event
| | fsnotify
| | __fsnotify_parent
After:
0.80% perf [k] __lock_acquire
__lock_acquire
lock_acquire
|
|--58.33%-- _spin_lock
| |
| |--28.57%-- inotify_should_send_event
| | fsnotify
| | __fsnotify_parent
Also, for clarity, we don't put anymore the callchain as is but:
- If we have a top level ancestor in the callchain, start it
with a first ascii hook.

display these like we did before:
