Arm CoreSight doesn't support thread stack, thus the decoding cannot display the symbol with indented spaces to reflect the stack depth.
This patch adds support thread stack, this allows 'perf script' to support option '-F,+callindent'.
Before:
# perf script -F,+callindent main 2808 1 branches: coresight_test1 ffff8634f5c8 coresight_test1+0x3c (/root/coresight_test/libcstest.so) main 2808 1 branches: printf@plt aaaaba8d37ec main+0x28 (/root/coresight_test/main) main 2808 1 branches: printf@plt aaaaba8d36bc printf@plt+0xc (/root/coresight_test/main) main 2808 1 branches: _init aaaaba8d3650 _init+0x30 (/root/coresight_test/main) main 2808 1 branches: _dl_fixup ffff86373b4c _dl_runtime_resolve+0x40 (/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-2.28.so) main 2808 1 branches: _dl_lookup_symbol_x ffff8636e078 _dl_fixup+0xb8 (/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-2.28.so) [...]
After:
