perf record: Add finished init event
In preparation for recording sideband events in a virtual machine guest so that they can be injected into a host perf.data file. This is needed to enable injecting events after the initial synthesized user events (that have an all zero id sample) but before regular events. Committer notes: Add entry about PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_INIT to tools/perf/Documentation/perf.data-file-format.txt. Committer testing: Before: # perf report -D | grep FINISHED 0 0x5910 [0x8]: PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND FINISHED_ROUND events: 1 ( 0.5%) # After: # perf record -- sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.020 MB perf.data (7 samples) ] # perf report -D | grep FINISHED 0 0x5068 [0x8]: PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_INIT: unhandled! 0 0x5390 [0x8]: PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND FINISHED_ROUND events: 1 ( 0.5%) FINISHED_INIT events: 1 ( 0.5%) # Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Acked-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220610113316.6682-5-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
