[PATCH V3 04/25] perf tools: Add AUX area tracing index

Adrian Hunter
2015-04-24T19:32:49Z

Add an index of AUX area tracing events within
a perf.data file.

perf record uses a special user event
PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND to enable sorting of
events in chunks instead of having to sort all
events altogether.

AUX area tracing events contain data that can
span back to the very beginning of the recording
period. i.e. they do not obey the rules of
PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND.

By adding an index, AUX area tracing events
can be found in advance and the
PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND approach works as
usual.

The index is recorded with the auxtrace feature
in the perf.data file. A session reads the index
but does not process it. An AUX area
decoder can queue all the AUX area data
in advance using auxtrace_queues__process_index()
or otherwise process the index in some custom
manner.
