[RFC v2][PATCH 07/11] perf: convert perf tracing data into a tracing_data event

From: Tom Zanussi
Date: Fri Apr 02 2010 - 01:05:05 EST


Bypasses the tracing_data perf header code and replaces it with a
synthesized event and processing function that accomplishes the same
thing, used when reading/writing perf data to/from a pipe.

The tracing data is pretty large, and this patch doesn't attempt to
break it down into component events. The tracing_data event itself
doesn't actually contain the tracing data, rather it arranges for the
event processing code to skip over it after it's read, using the skip
return value added to the event processing loop in a previous patch.
