    perf config: Export the perf_config_from_file() function · 79bbbabd
    Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
    We'll use it to ask for extra config files to be loaded, profile like
    stuff that will be used first to make 'perf trace' mimic 'strace' output
    via a 'perf strace' command that just sets up 'perf trace' output.
    
    At some point it'll be used for regression tests, where we'll run some
    simple commands like:
    
      perf strace ls > perf-strace.output
      strace ls > strace.output
    
    And then do some mutable syscall arg aware diff like tool to deal with
    arguments for things like mmap, that change at each execution, to be
    first ignored and then properly tracked when used accoss multiple
    syscalls.
