    perf tools: Add attr->mmap2 support · 5c5e854b
    Stephane Eranian authored
    This patch adds support for the new PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 record type
    exposed by the kernel. This is an extended PERF_RECORD_MMAP record.
    
    It adds for each file-backed mapping the device major, minor number and
    the inode number and generation.
    
    This triplet uniquely identifies the source of a file-backed mapping. It
    can be used to detect identical virtual mappings between processes, for
    instance.
    
    The patch will prefer MMAP2 over MMAP.

    [ Cope with 314add6b "Change machine__findnew_thread() to set thread pid",
      fix 'perf test' regression test entry affected,
      use perf_missing_features.mmap2 to fallback to not using .mmap2 in older kernels,
      so that new tools can work with kernels where this feature is not present ]
