perf stat: Always separate stalled cycles per insn
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The "stalled cycles per insn" is appended to "instructions" when the CPU
has this hardware counter directly. We should always make it a separate
line, which also aligns to the output when we hit the "if (total &&
avg)" branch.

Before:

  $ sudo perf stat --all-cpus --field-separator , --log-fd 1 -einstructions,cycles -- sleep 1
  4565048704,,instructions,64114578096,100.00,1.34,insn per cycle,,
  3396325133,,cycles,64146628546,100.00,,

After:

  $ sudo ./tools/perf/perf stat --all-cpus --field-separator , --log-fd 1 -einstructions,cycles -- sleep 1
  6721924,,instructions,24026790339,100.00,0.22,insn per cycle
  ,,,,,0.00,stalled cycles per insn
  30939953,,cycles,24025512526,100.00,,
