    perf ftrace: Introduce new 'ftrace' tool · d01f4e8d
    Namhyung Kim authored
    
    
    The 'perf ftrace' command is a simple wrapper of kernel's ftrace
    functionality.  It only supports single thread tracing currently and
    just reads trace_pipe in text and then write it to stdout.
    
    Committer notes:
    
    Testing it:
    
      # perf ftrace -f function_graph usleep 123456
