[PATCH 0/2 v2] perf: Fix missing branch counter information in script and annotate

From: Thomas Falcon

Date: Wed Apr 29 2026 - 11:38:35 EST


This series fixes two issues related to branch counter (br_cntr)
display in perf.

The first patch fixes a missing '+' indicator in 'perf script' output.
The '+' suffix is used to signal that event occurrences may have been
lost due to branch counter overflow.

The second patch fixes a regression in 'perf annotate' TUI mode where
the Branch Count column was never displayed. The check for whether to
enable branch counter display was performed before events were processed
and the counter data was populated, so the condition was never satisfied.
Moving the check to after event processing resolves this.

v2: Added a cover letter and expanded commit message for patch 1/2.
Patch 2/2 was missing some conditional checks to enable branch counter
display, which have been added back.
