2020-04-03perf record: Add --all-cgroups optionNamhyung Kim
The --all-cgroups option is to enable cgroup profiling support. It tells kernel to record CGROUP events in the ring buffer so that perf report can identify task/cgroup association later.

2019-11-22perf auxtrace: Add support for AUX area sample recordingAdrian Hunter
Add support for parsing and validating AUX area sample options. At present, the only option is the sample size, but it is also necessary to ensure that events are in a group with an AUX area event as the leader. Committer note: Add missing 'static inline' in front of auxtrace_parse_sample_options() for when we don't HAVE_AUXTRACE_SUPPORT.

2019-11-06perf record: Put a copy of kcore into the perf.data directoryAdrian Hunter
Add a new 'perf record' option '--kcore' which will put a copy of /proc/kcore, kallsyms and modules into a perf.data directory. Note, that without the --kcore option, output goes to a file as previously. The tools' -o and -i options work with either a file name or directory name. Example: $ sudo perf record --kcore uname $ sudo tree perf.data perf.data ├── kcore_dir │   ├── kallsyms │   ├── kcore │   └── modules └── data $ sudo perf script -v build id event received for vmlinux: 1eaa285996affce2d74d8e66dcea09a80c9941de build id event received for [vdso]: 8bbaf5dc62a9b644b4d4e4539737e104e4a84541 Samples for 'cycles' event do not have CPU attribute set.

2019-08-26perf record: Move record_opts and other record decls out of perf.hArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
And into a separate util/record.h, to better isolate things and make sure that those who use record_opts and the other moved declarations are explicitly including the necessary header.
