[PATCH 1/2] perf record: Synthesize features before events in pipe mode

[PATCH 1/2] perf record: Synthesize features before events in pipe mode

[Jiri Olsa]

We need to synthesize events first, because some
features works on top of them (on report side).

[PATCH 2/2] perf report: Support forced leader feature in pipe mode

[Jiri Olsa]

Stephan reported a problem with forced leader in pipe mode,
where report does not force the group output. The reason is
that we don't force the leader in pipe mode.

This patch adds HEADER_LAST_FEATURE mark to have a point
where we have all events and features received, and
force the group if requested.

perf report: Support forced leader feature in pipe mode

Stephane reported a problem with forced leader in pipe mode, where
report does not force the group output. The reason is that we don't
force the leader in pipe mode.

This patch adds HEADER_LAST_FEATURE mark to have a point where we have
all events and features received, and force the group if requested.

  $ perf record --group -e '{cycles, instructions}' -o - kill | perf report -i - --group
