From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Fri Nov 07 2014 - 08:58:20 EST


Add a new config option for auto-disable buildid-cache.

$ cat ~/.perfconfig
[record]
use-buildid-cache = false

$ rm -rf ~/.debug
$ perf record -av sleep 1
mmap size 528384B
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.439 MB perf.data (~19182 samples) ]
Looking at the vmlinux_path (7 entries long)
Using /proc/kallsyms for symbols

$ tree ~/.debug
/home/namhyung/.debug [error opening dir]
