From: Alexey Budankov Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2020 07:08:23 +0000 (+0300) Subject: perf record: Introduce --control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd] options X-Git-Tag: v5.15~3130^2~38 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1d078ccb33807546c73e07a79fca6a976b7ecac8;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-starfive.git perf record: Introduce --control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd] options Introduce --control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd] options to pass open file descriptors numbers from command line. Extend perf-record.txt file with --control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd] options description. Document possible usage model introduced by --control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd] options by providing example bash shell script.
