If you need to shove samples into perf (versus mmap updates) I suspect
the prctl system call will have way to much overhead. In that case
perhaps processes could export a shared memory buffer that a perf
session could attach -- another aux buffer similar to what itrace needs.
But then that brings in the perf_clock issue; samples would need to have
the same time basis as kernel generated samples.
