Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 1/8] perf event: Factor build_id out into its own top-level struct
Date: Fri,  7 Aug 2026 00:18:11 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260807071818.718751-2-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260807071818.718751-1-irogers@google.com>

Future changes will use build_id in more contexts. For consistency make
the struct its own type and update usage to be of this type.
