perf: Do not send exit event twice
In case we monitor events system wide, we get EXIT event (when configured) twice for each task that exited.
Note doubled lines with same pid/tid in following example:
$ sudo ./perf record -a ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.480 MB perf.data (2518 samples) ] $ sudo ./perf report -D | grep EXIT
0 60290687567581 0x59910 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1250:1250):(1250:1250) 0 60290687568354 0x59948 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1250:1250):(1250:1250) 0 60290687988744 0x59ad8 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1250:1250):(1250:1250) 0 60290687989198 0x59b10 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1250:1250):(1250:1250) 1 60290692567895 0x62af0 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1253:1253):(1253:1253) 1 60290692568322 0x62b28 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1253:1253):(1253:1253) 2 60290692739276 0x69a18 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1252:1252):(1252:1252) 2 60290692739910 0x69a50 [0x38]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(1252:1252):(1252:1252)
The reason is that the cpu contexts are processes each time we call perf_event_task. I'm changing the perf_event_aux logic to serve task_ctx and cpu contexts separately, which ensure we don't get EXIT event generated twice on same cpu context.
This does not affect other auxiliary events, as they don't use task_ctx at all.
