perf mem: Support using -f to override perf.data file ownership
Enable perf mem to use perf.data when it is not owned by current user or
root.
Example:
# perf mem -t load record ls
# chown Yunlong.Song:Yunlong.Song perf.data
# ls -al perf.data
-rw------- 1 Yunlong.Song Yunlong.Song 16392 Apr 2 14:34 perf.data
# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),64(pkcs11)
Before this patch:
# perf mem -D report
File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
# perf mem -D -f report
Error: unknown switch `f'
usage: perf mem [<options>] {record|report}
-t, --type <type> memory operations(load,store) Default load,store
-D, --dump-raw-samples
dump raw samples in ASCII
-U, --hide-unresolved
Only display entries resolved to a symbol
-i, --input <file> input file name
-C, --cpu <cpu> list of cpus to profile
-x, --field-separator <separator>
separator for columns, no spaces will be added
between columns '.' is reserved.
As shown above, the -f option does not work at all.
After this patch:
# perf mem -D report
File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
# perf mem -D -f report
# PID, TID, IP, ADDR, LOCAL WEIGHT, DSRC, SYMBOL

As shown above, the -f option really works now.
