perf tools: Allow multiple threads or processes in record, stat, top
Allow a user to collect events for multiple threads or processes using a comma separated list. e.g., collect data on a VM and its vhost thread: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 or monitoring vcpu threads perf top -t 21488,21489 perf stat -t 21488,21489 -ddd perf record -t 21488,21489 Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1328718772-16688-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
