    perf tools: Add time conversion event · 46bc29b9
    Adrian Hunter 提交于
    Intel PT uses the time members from the perf_event_mmap_page to convert
    between TSC and perf time.
    
    Due to a lack of foresight when Intel PT was implemented, those time
    members were recorded in the (implementation dependent) AUXTRACE_INFO
    event, the structure of which is generally inaccessible outside of the
    Intel PT decoder.  However now the conversion between TSC and perf time
    is needed when processing a jitdump file when Intel PT has been used for
    tracing.
    
    So add a user event to record the time members.  'perf record' will
    synthesize the event if the information is available.  And session
    processing will put a copy of the event on the session so that tools
    like 'perf inject' can easily access it.
