    perf script: Add script print support for namespace events · 96a44bbc
    Hari Bathini authored
    Introduce a new option to display events of type PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES
    and update perf-script documentation accordingly.
    
    Shown below is output (trimmed) of perf script command with the newly
    introduced option, on perf.data generated with perf record command using
    --namespaces option.
    
      $ perf script --show-namespace-events
          swapper   0 [000]     0.000000: PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES 1/1 - nr_namespaces: 7

    Commiter notes:
    
    Testing it:
    
    Investigating that double PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES for the 19155
    pid/tid... Its more than that, there are two PERF_RECORD_COMM as well,
    and with zeroed timestamps, so probably a synthesizing artifact...
