Stream is the branch history which is aggregated by the branch records
from perf samples. Now we support the callchain as stream.
If the callchain entries of one stream are fully matched with the
callchain entries of another stream, we think two streams are matched.
For example,
cycles: 1, hits: 26.80% cycles: 1, hits: 27.30%
----------------------- -----------------------
main div.c:39 main div.c:39
main div.c:44 main div.c:44
Above two streams are matched (we don't consider the case that source
code is changed).
The matching logic is, compare the chain string first. If it's not
matched, fallback to dso address comparison.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
