Subject[PATCH 0/6] perf tools: Add wallclock time conversion support
Date
hi,
this patchset is based on changes made by David Ahern long time ago.
The perf code moved a lot since then, but the idea is the same.

The patchset is adding the ability to display TOD/wallclock timestamp
in 'perf script' output and in 'perf data convert --to-ctf' subcommand,
so the converted CTF data contain TOD/wallclock timestamps.

It's done by adding new header FEATURE 'CLOCK_DATA' to perf.data, that
stores reference times for both TOD/wallclock time and for the clock that
perf record is configured to use. These reference times are then used to
convert sample's timestamps to TOD/wallclock timestamps.

The feature is available only for recording with clockid specified,
because it's the only case where we can get reference time to TOD/wallclock
time. We can't do that with perf clock yet.

Also available in here:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jolsa/perf.git
perf/abs_time

thanks,
jirka
