Yes, I'm aware of it. My motivation is to generate a HTML perf annotate report
and I see the following parts of --stdio2 not ideal:
- coloring is not available (--stdio-color=always does not work)
- 'Sorted summary for file ' is missing so one can't easily search for
hot spots in browser
- source line number are displayed, but not the source files
- there's a missing option for 'Toggle disassembler output/simplified view' which
is available in TUI mode
That said, the stdio2 annotation report is quite different and so handy for my use case.

Sure. But I think the current format provides quite broken visual layout:
0.00 : 405ef1: inc %r15
0.01 : 405ef4: vfmadd213sd 0x2b9b3(%rip),%xmm0,%xmm3 # 4318b0 <_IO_stdin_used+0x8b0>
eff.c:1811 0.67 : 405efd: vfmadd213sd 0x2b9b2(%rip),%xmm0,%xmm3 # 4318b8 <_IO_stdin_used+0x8b8>
: TA + tmpsd * (TB +
vs.
0.00 : 405ef1: inc %r15
0.01 : 405ef4: vfmadd213sd 0x2b9b3(%rip),%xmm0,%xmm3 # 4318b0 <_IO_stdin_used+0x8b0>
0.67 : 405efd: vfmadd213sd 0x2b9b2(%rip),%xmm0,%xmm3 # 4318b8 <_IO_stdin_used+0x8b8> // eff.c:1811
: 1810 TA + tmpsd * (TB +
I bet also the current users of --stdio mode would benefit from it.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Martin
