[RFC][PATCH 5/9] perf trace: Add Perl scripting support

From: Tom Zanussi
Date: Tue Oct 06 2009 - 02:18:16 EST


Implement trace_scripting_operations to make Perl a supported perf
trace scripting language.

Also adds code that allows Perl trace scripts to access the 'flag' and
'symbolic' (__print_flags(), __print_symbolic()) field information
parsed from the trace format files.
