[PATCH v6 2/5] tracing: Add .percent suffix option to histogram values

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google)
Date: Tue Oct 18 2022 - 11:49:07 EST


From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add .percent suffix option to show the histogram values in percentage.
This feature is useful when we need yo undersntand the overall trend
for the histograms of large values.
E.g. this shows the runtime percentage for each tasks.
