perf report has supported the option --group-sort-idx, which
sorts the output by the event at the index n in event group.

For example,
perf record -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses
perf report --group --group-sort-idx 2 --stdio

The perf-report output is sorted by cache-misses.

This patch supports --group-sort-idx in perf-top.

For example,
perf top --group -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses --group-sort-idx 2

The perf-top output is sorted by cache-misses.

It would be nice if we can use a hotkey in perf top browser to
select a event for sorting.

For example,
perf top --group -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses

Samples
                Overhead  Shared Object             Symbol
  40.03%  45.71%   0.03%  div                       [.] main

   0.04%   0.04%   1.77%  perf                      [.] sort__dso_cmp

When user press hotkey '2' (event index, starting from 0), it indicates
to sort output by the third event in group (cache-misses).

Samples
                Overhead  Shared Object               Symbol
   4.07%   1.28%   6.68%  perf                        [.] rb_next

   3.67%   3.20%   3.20%  perf                        [.] hpp__sort_overhead
   0.81%   0.06%   3.01%  perf                        [.] dso__find_symbol
   1.62%   5.47%   2.51%  perf                        [.] hists__match
   2.70%   1.86%   2.47%  libc-2.27.so                [.] _int_malloc
   0.19%   0.00%   2.29%  [kernel]                    [k] copy_page
   0.41%   0.32%   1.98%  perf                        [.] hists__decay_entries
   1.84%   3.67%   1.68%  perf                        [.] sort__dso_cmp
   0.16%   0.00%   1.63%  [kernel]                    [k] clear_page_erms

Now the output is sorted by cache-misses.

 v2:

 Zero the history if hotkey is pressed.

Hi Arnaldo,

The v2 patch zeros the history when pressing the hotkey. Is it OK?

Thanks

perf top: Support hotkey to change sort order

It would be nice if we can use a hotkey in perf top browser to select a
event for sorting.

For example:

  perf top --group -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses

  Samples
                  Overhead  Shared Object             Symbol
    40.03%  45.71%   0.03%  div                       [.] main

     9.68%  10.68%   0.00%  div                       [.] compute_flag

     3.84%   3.43%   0.00%  div                       [.] rand@plt
     0.05%   0.05%   2.33%  libc-2.27.so              [.] __strcmp_sse2_unaligned
     0.04%   0.08%   2.43%  perf                      [.] perf_hpp__is_dynamic_en
     0.04%   0.02%   6.64%  perf                      [.] rb_next

     0.04%   0.04%   1.77%  perf                      [.] sort__dso_cmp

When user press hotkey '2' (event index, starting from 0), it indicates
to sort output by the third event in group (cache-misses).

  Samples
                  Overhead  Shared Object               Symbol
     4.07%   1.28%   6.68%  perf                        [.] rb_next

     3.67%  11.24%   3.60%  perf                        [.] perf_hpp__is_dynamic_e
     3.67%   3.20%   3.20%  perf                        [.] hpp__sort_overhead
     0.81%   0.06%   3.01%  perf                        [.] dso__find_symbol
     1.62%   5.47%   2.51%  perf                        [.] hists__match
     2.70%   1.86%   2.47%  libc-2.27.so                [.] _int_malloc
     0.19%   0.00%   2.29%  [kernel]                    [k] copy_page
     0.41%   0.32%   1.98%  perf                        [.] hists__decay_entries
     1.84%   3.67%   1.68%  perf                        [.] sort__dso_cmp
     0.16%   0.00%   1.63%  [kernel]                    [k] clear_page_erms

Now the output is sorted by cache-misses.

 v2:
 ---
 Zero the history if hotkey is pressed.

perf top: Support --group-sort-idx to change the sort order

'perf report' supports the option --group-sort-idx, which sorts the
output by the event at the index n in event group.

For example:

  perf record -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses
  perf report --group --group-sort-idx 2 --stdio

The perf-report output is sorted by cache-misses.

This patch supports --group-sort-idx in perf-top.

For example:

  perf top --group -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses --group-sort-idx 2

The perf-top output is sorted by cache-misses.
