[PATCH v1 2/3] perf report: extend raw dump (-D) out with switch out event type
From: Alexey Budankov
Date: Mon Mar 05 2018 - 06:38:47 EST
Print additional 'yield' tag for PERF_RECORD_SWITCH[_CPU_WIDE] OUT records when
event header misc field contains PERF_RECORD_MISC_SWITCH_OUT_YIELD bit set
designating synchronization context switch out event:
perf report -D -i system-wide.perf:
