perf record: Synthesize namespace events for current processes
Synthesize PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events for processes that were running prior to invocation of perf record. The data for this is taken from /proc/$PID/ns. These changes make way for analyzing events with regard to namespaces. Committer notes: Check if 'tool' is NULL in perf_event__synthesize_namespaces(), as in the test__mmap_thread_lookup case, i.e. 'perf test Lookup mmap thread". Testing it: # ps axH > /tmp/allthreads # perf record -a --namespaces usleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.169 MB perf.data (8 samples) ] # perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES | wc -l 602 # wc -l /tmp/allthreads 601 /tmp/allthreads # tail /tmp/allthreads 16951 pts/4 T 0:00 git rebase -i a033bf1bfacdaa25642e6bcc857a7d0f67cc3c92^ 16952 pts/4 T 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/libexec/git-core/git-rebase -i a033bf1bfacdaa25642e6bcc857a7d0f67cc3c92^ 17176 pts/4 T 0:00 git commit --amend --no-post-rewrite 17204 pts/4 T 0:00 vim /home/acme/git/linux/.git/COMMIT_EDITMSG 18939 ?
