perf tools: Add 'stop' control command
Adding control 'stop' command to stop perf record. When it is received, perf will set the 'done' variable to 1 to stop its mmap ring buffer reading loop. Example session: terminal 1: # mkfifo control ack # perf record --control=fifo:control,ack terminal 2: # echo stop > control terminal 1: [ perf record: Woken up 7 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.214 MB perf.data (38280 samples) ] # Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Alexei Budankov <abudankov@huawei.com> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Michael Petlan <mpetlan@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201226232038.390883-4-jolsa@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
