Hari Bathini 96a44bbccd perf script: Add script print support for namespace events
Introduce a new option to display events of type PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES
and update perf-script documentation accordingly.

Shown below is output (trimmed) of perf script command with the newly
introduced option, on perf.data generated with perf record command using
--namespaces option.

  $ perf script --show-namespace-events
      swapper   0 [000]     0.000000: PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES 1/1 - nr_namespaces: 7
                [0/net: 3/0xf000001c, 1/uts: 3/0xeffffffe, 2/ipc: 3/0xefffffff, 3/pid: 3/0xeffffffc,
                 4/user: 3/0xeffffffd, 5/mnt: 3/0xf0000000, 6/cgroup: 3/0xeffffffb]
      swapper   0 [000]     0.000000: PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES 2/2 - nr_namespaces: 7
                [0/net: 3/0xf000001c, 1/uts: 3/0xeffffffe, 2/ipc: 3/0xefffffff, 3/pid: 3/0xeffffffc,
                 4/user: 3/0xeffffffd, 5/mnt: 3/0xf0000000, 6/cgroup: 3/0xeffffffb]

Commiter notes:

Testing it:

Investigating that double PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES for the 19155
pid/tid... Its more than that, there are two PERF_RECORD_COMM as well,
and with zeroed timestamps, so probably a synthesizing artifact...

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
