Subject: [PATCH 5/6] perf record: Add 'snapshot' control command
Add 'snapshot' control command to create an AUX area tracing snapshot the
same as if sending SIGUSR2. The advantage of the FIFO is that access is
governed by access to the FIFO.
Example:
$ mkfifo perf.control
$ mkfifo perf.ack
$ cat perf.ack &
[1] 15235
$ sudo ~/bin/perf record --control perf.control,perf.ack -S -e intel_pt//u -- sleep 60 &
[2] 15243
$ ps -e | grep perf
15244 pts/1 00:00:00 perf
$ kill -USR2 15244
bash: kill: (15244) - Operation not permitted
$ echo snapshot > perf.control
ack
