Stephane, do you think it would be a problem to use
perf_can_record_build_id() at tool start and if it says that we can get
those mmaps with build ids use it by default? Older perf tools would get
that new bit and bogus values for that maj/min/ino_generation things,
people noticing such problems would either update their tools or ask for
the use of --no-buildid-mmap in 'perf record' sessions.
The problem I see is that this is important information to have by
default, forcing the user to add more and more command line opt-in
options doesn't seem interesting.
Having it as a .perfconfig variable helps, but then we at some point
need to start shipping some example .perfconfig to enable all these new
features so that the user can, with just one step, have all the modern
goodies.
