At any +point the processing code can inject other events into the event stream - in +this case build-ids (-b option) are read and injected as needed into the event +stream. + +Build-ids are just the first user of perf-inject - potentially anything that +needs userspace processing to augment the events stream with additional +information could make use of this facility. + +OPTIONS +------- +-b:: +--build-ids:: + Inject build-ids into the output stream + +--buildid-all: + Inject build-ids of all DSOs into the output stream + +-v:: +--verbose:: + Be more verbose. +-i:: +--input=:: + Input file name.
