Subject: [PATCH -tip 2/7] perf: Introduce perf sub command 'bts record'
Introduce the easy way to record bts log, 'perf bts record'.
This command can record the bts log while specified command is executing,
and save to the file "perf.data"
Usage:
perf bts record <tracee command>
Example:
# perf bts record ls -l
(ls -l outputs)
# perf record: Captured and wrote 4.381 MB perf.data (~191405 samples)
# ls
perf.data
