Subject: [PATCH v6 3/5] perf report: Add --no-progress option
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 23:37:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930213716.2633750-4-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930213716.2633750-1-acme@kernel.org>
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
Now that --progress is being added for the stdio case, wire up its
counterpart for the browsers: the TUI and GTK ones present progress of
their own and there is no way to turn it off. Install the no-op
ui_progress ops, the ones already used until a backend sets theirs,
after setup_browser() installed the ones of the browser in use. The
phases are still counted, nothing is shown for them, and no second
option is needed for it: parse-options provides --no-progress as the
negation of --progress, report.progress_set saying that it was asked
for, report.progress being false both when nothing was asked for and
when --no-progress was.
