Adrian Hunter 61110883a0 perf record: Add new option to sample identifier
In preparation for recording sideband events in a virtual machine guest so
that they can be injected into a host perf.data file.

Add an option to always include sample type PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER.

Committer testing:

  # perf record sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.020 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
  # perf evlist -v
  cycles: size: 128, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, bpf_event: 1
  #
  #
  # perf record --sample-identifier sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.022 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
  # perf evlist -v
  cycles: size: 128, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, read_format: ID, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol: 1, bpf_event: 1

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
