Subject: [PATCH 3/6] perf python tracepoint.py: Change the COMM using setproctitle if available
Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2025 17:31:38 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250312203141.285263-4-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250312203141.285263-1-acme@kernel.org>
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
Otherwise when debugging we see just "python" in perf, top, etc.
