Hello,

Sorry for the late reply.

Right, annotation can be correct but c2c hist entry is not tied to an evsel
so there's no need to save the evsel for each hist entry.

Sure, please do.

Hmm.. right.  I thought you should check the number of entries again but
c2c doesn't have filtering or hierarchy output so you can use
hists->nr_entries always.

But now I wonder if it's really needed as the annotate will use its own
browser so the c2c browser won't be affected.

Yeah, I don't think we need it.
