Subject[RFC][PATCH 6/9] perf trace: Add scripting op for generating empty event handling scripts
Date
To give script writers an easy starting point for writing scripts,
scripting language support for a particular language can implement a
generate_event_handlers() scripting op that will output an empty (or
near-empty) set of handlers in the supported language for all the
events contained in a give perf.data trace file.

This patch adds the generate_event_handlers() scripting op and also
adds a Perl implementation that creates a ready-to-run Perl script
that can be passed to perf trace for generic event printing. Scripts
generated by this implementation print out all the fields for each
event (and will detect and generate the proper scripting code for
'flag' and 'symbolic' fields), and will additionally generate handlers
for the special 'trace_unhandled', 'trace_begin' and 'trace_end'
handlers. Script authors can simply remove the printing code to
implement their own custom event handling.
