[PATCH 5/6] perf timechart: add support for -P and -T in timechart recording

From: Stanislav Fomichev
Date: Tue Oct 22 2013 - 07:04:36 EST


If we don't want either power or task events we may use -T or -P
with the `perf timechart record` command to filter out events while
recording to keep perf.data small.
