From 2c46dbb517a10b18d459e6ceffefde5bfb290cf6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Zanussi Date: Thu, 1 Apr 2010 23:59:19 -0500 Subject: perf: Convert perf header attrs into attr events Bypasses the attr perf header code and replaces it with a synthesized event and processing function that accomplishes the same thing, used when reading/writing perf data to/from a pipe. Making the attrs into events allows them to be streamed over a pipe along with the rest of the header data (in later patches). It also paves the way to allowing events to be added and removed from perf sessions dynamically.
