perf trace: Implement --delay
In the perf wiki todo-list[1], there is an entry regarding initial-delay and 'perf trace'; the following small patch tries to fulfill this point. It has been generated against the branch tip/perf/core. It has only been implemented in the "trace__run" case. Ex.: $ sudo strace -- ./perf trace --delay 5 sleep 1 2>&1 ... fcntl(7, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 ioctl(7, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID, 0x7ffc8fd35718) = 0 ioctl(11, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT, 0x7) = 0 fcntl(11, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 ioctl(11, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID, 0x7ffc8fd35718) = 0 write(6, "\0", 1) = 1 close(6) = 0 nanosleep({0, 5000000}, NULL) = 0 # DELAY OF 5 MS BEFORE ENABLING THE EVENTS ioctl(3, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0 ioctl(4, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0 ioctl(5, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0 ioctl(7, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0) = 0 ...
