Subject: [PATCH 19/52] perf tools: Add id index
Date: Tue, 22 Jul 2014 16:17:28 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1406035081-14301-20-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1406035081-14301-1-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com>
Add an index of the event identifiers.
This is needed to queue Instruction
Trace samples according to the mmap
buffer from which they were recorded.
