[v8,00/25] Trace file version 7 - sections

Message

Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) Jan. 19, 2022, 8:24 a.m. UTC

Introduce the next version of the trace-cmd trace file - 7. Major changes
since version 6 is more flexible extendable structure of the file, based on
independent sections.

v8 changes:
 - Bug fixes.
 - Code cleanups.
 - Rebase.

v7 changes:
 - Rebased on top of the latest master.
 - Introduced new metadata strings section.
 - Use 8 bytes for section size. 
v6 changes:
 - Rebased on top of the latest master.
 - On trace file v7 close, write any unsaved options in the file - as
   a last section.
 - Removed the patch "Do not write CPUs with empty trace data" from the
   patch set. Empty CPUs are written in v7 trace files, the same way as in
   v6.
v5 changes:
 - Rebased on top of the latest master.
v4 changes:
 - Rebased on top of the latest master.
v3 changes:
 - Fixed issues of split and convert commands with some corner cases.
v2 changes:
 - Code cleanups.
