Ok, waiting for a new patchset then.

Well, by reusing perf_event__fprintf() we will make it clear the kind of
that event, i.e. its not a tracepoint, but a sideband record generated
by the perf infrastructure.

Or perhaps we can change perf_event__fprintf* to show:

swapper 0 [009] 3350640.335261: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=swapper/9
sleep 9486 [009] 3350640.335509: perf:comm: sleep:9486
sleep 9486 [009] 3350640.335806: sched:sched_stat_runtime: comm=sleep pid=9486
firefox 2635 [003] 3350641.275896: perf:fork(2635:9487):(2635:2635)
firefox 2635 [003] 3350641.275896: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=firefox pid=2635
sleep 9486 [009] 3350641.336009: perf:exit(9486:9486):(9486:9486)

Would that look nicer here and in 'perf report -D'? Ingo?
