[PATCH 15/28] perf db-export: Also export thread's current comm

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Mon Jul 15 2019 - 17:13:34 EST


From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx>

Currently, the initial comm of the main thread is exported. Export also
a thread's current comm. That better supports the tracing of
multi-threaded applications that set different comms for different
threads to make it easier to distinguish them.
