And default sort keys are changed to comm, dso_from, symbol_from, dso_to
and symbol_to, see '--branch-stack'.
If the data file has tracepoint event(s), following (dynamic) sort keys
are also available:
trace, trace_fields, [<event>.]<field>[/raw]
- trace: pretty printed trace output in a single column
- trace_fields: fields in tracepoints in separate columns
- <field name>: optional event and field name for a specific field
The last form consists of event and field names. If event name is
omitted, it searches all events for matching field name. The matched
field will be shown only for the event has the field. The event name
supports substring match so user doesn't need to specify full subsystem
and event name everytime. For example, 'sched:sched_switch' event can
be shortened to 'switch' as long as it's not ambiguous. Also event can
be specified by its index (starting from 1) preceded by the '%'.
So '%1' is the first event, '%2' is the second, and so on.
The field name can have '/raw' suffix which disables pretty printing
and shows raw field value like hex numbers. The --raw-trace option
has the same effect for all dynamic sort keys.
The default sort keys are changed to 'trace' if all events in the data
file are tracepoint.

Specify output field - multiple keys can be specified in CSV format.
