[PATCH 14/19] perf record: Add clockid parameter
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Apr 08 2015 - 10:24:51 EST
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Teach perf-record about the new perf_event_attr::{use_clockid, clockid}
fields. Add a simple parameter to set the clock (if any) to be used for
the events to be recorded into the data file.
Since we store the entire perf_event_attr in the EVENT_DESC section we
also already store the used clockid in the data file.

[ Conditionally define CLOCK_BOOTTIME, at least rhel6 doesn't have it - dsahern
Ditto for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, sles11sp2 doesn't have it - yunlong.song ]

+Sets the clock id to use for the various time fields in the perf_event_type
+records. See clock_gettime(). In particular CLOCK_MONOTONIC and
+CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW are supported, some events might also allow
+CLOCK_BOOTTIME, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_TAI.
