Although perf can record the events (with call stack) of a specified pid, e.g. using
"perf record -g iozone -s 262144 -r 64 -i 0 -i 2". But we find iozone is interrupted

That command tells perf to *only* collect data for iozone. This command:

perf record -g -a -- iozone ....

tells perf to collect samples system wide as long as the iozone process is alive.
