Commit 722ddfde366f ("perf tools: Fix time sorting") changed - correctly so - hist_entry__sort to return int64. Unfortunately several of the builtin-c2c.c comparison routines only happened to work due the cast caused by the wrong return type.
This causes meaningless ordering of both the cacheline list, and the cacheline details page. E.g a simple perf c2c record -a sleep 3 perf c2c report will result in cacheline table like ================================================= Shared Data Cache Line Table ================================================= # # ----------- Cacheline ---------- Total Tot ----- LLC Load Hitm ----- ---- Store Reference ---- --- Load Dram ---- LLC Total ----- Core Load Hit ----- -- LLC Load Hit -- # Index Address Node PA cnt records Hitm Total Lcl Rmt Total L1Hit L1Miss Lcl Rmt Ld Miss Loads FB L1 L2 Llc Rmt # ..... .................. .... ...... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ........ ........ ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ........ ........ # 0 0x7f0d27ffba00 N/A 0 52 0.12% 13 6 7 12 12 0 0 7 14 40 4 16 0 0 0 1 0x7f0d27ff61c0 N/A 0 6353 14.04% 1475 801 674 779 779 0 0 718 1392 5574 1299 1967 0 115 0 2 0x7f0d26d3ec80 N/A 0 71 0.15% 16 4 12 13 13 0 0 12 24 58 1 20 0 9 0 3 0x7f0d26d3ec00 N/A 0 98 0.22% 23 17 6 19 19 0 0 6 12 79 0 40 0 10 0 i.e. with the list not being ordered by Total Hitm.

that change looks right, but I can't see how that could happened because of change in Fixes: tag
was the return statement of this function:
return tot_hitm_left - tot_hitm_right;
considered to be 'unsigned int' and then converted to int64_t, which would treat negative 'unsigned int' as big positive 'int64_t'?
thanks, jirka
