Subject: [PATCH] Perf: bug fix: distinguish between rename and exec
This makes it possible for "perf report" to distinguish between an exec and
a rename (for instance from prctl(PR_SET_NAME)). Currently a similar COMM
record is produced for the two events. Perf report assumes all COMM records
are execs and discards the old mappings. Without mappings, perf report
can no longer correlate sampled IPs to the functions containing them,
and collapses all samples into a single bucket.
This change maintains backward compatibility in both directions, i.e. old
version of perf will continue to work on new perf.data files in the same
way, and new versions of perf on old data files.
Another solution would be to not send COMM records for renames. Although
it seems reasonable, it might break existing setups.
