perf trace: Keep exited threads for summary
Since 9ffa6c7512ca ("perf machine thread: Remove exited threads by default") perf cleans exited threads up, but as said, sometimes they are necessary to be kept. The mentioned commit does not cover all the cases, we also need the information to construct the summary table in perf-trace. Before: # perf trace -s true Summary of events: After: # perf trace -s -- true Summary of events: true (383382), 64 events, 91.4% syscall calls errors total min avg max stddev (msec) (msec) (msec) (msec) (%) --------------- -------- ------ -------- --------- --------- --------- ------ mmap 8 0 0.150 0.013 0.019 0.031 11.90% mprotect 3 0 0.045 0.014 0.015 0.017 6.47% openat 2 0 0.014 0.006 0.007 0.007 9.73% munmap 1 0 0.009 0.009 0.009 0.009 0.00% access 1 1 0.009 0.009 0.009 0.009 0.00% pread64 4 0 0.006 0.001 0.001 0.002 4.53% fstat 2 0 0.005 0.001 0.002 0.003 37.59% arch_prctl 2 1 0.003 0.001 0.002 0.002 25.91% read 1 0 0.003 0.003 0.003 0.003 0.00% close 2 0 0.003 0.001 0.001 0.001 3.86% brk 1 0 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.00% rseq 1 0 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.00% prlimit64 1 0 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.00% set_robust_list 1 0 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.00% set_tid_address 1 0 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.00% execve 1 0 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.00% [namhyung: simplified the condition] Fixes: 9ffa6c7512ca ("perf machine thread: Remove exited threads by default") Reported-by: Veronika Molnarova <vmolnaro@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Petlan <mpetlan@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240927151926.399474-1-mpetlan@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>
