Subject[PATCH 09/10] perf trace: Don't set the base timestamp using events without PERF_SAMPLE_TIME
Date
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

This was causing bogus values to be shown at the timestamp column:

Before:

# trace --ev bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ --ev /home/acme/bpf/test_bpf_trace.c/map:channel.event=evt/ usleep 10
94631143.385 ( 0.001 ms): brk( ) = 0x555555757000
94631143.398 ( 0.003 ms): mmap(len: 4096, prot: READ|WRITE, flags: PRIVATE|ANONYMOUS, fd: -1) = 0x7ffff7ff6000
94631143.406 ( 0.004 ms): access(filename: 0xf7df9e10, mode: R ) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
94631143.412 ( 0.004 ms): open(filename: 0xf7df8761, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
94631143.415 ( 0.002 ms): fstat(fd: 3, statbuf: 0x7fffffffd6b0 ) = 0
94631143.419 ( 0.003 ms): mmap(len: 106798, prot: READ, flags: PRIVATE, fd: 3) = 0x7ffff7fdb000
94631143.420 ( 0.001 ms): close(fd: 3 ) = 0
94631143.432 ( 0.004 ms): open(filename: 0xf7ff6640, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
<SNIP>

After:

# trace --ev bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ --ev /home/acme/bpf/test_bpf_trace.c/map:channel.event=evt/ usleep 10
0.022 ( 0.001 ms): brk( ) = 0x55d7668a6000
0.037 ( 0.003 ms): mmap(len: 4096, prot: READ|WRITE, flags: PRIVATE|ANONYMOUS, fd: -1) = 0x7f8fbeb97000
0.123 ( 0.083 ms): access(filename: 0xbe995e10, mode: R ) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
0.130 ( 0.004 ms): open(filename: 0xbe994761, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.133 ( 0.002 ms): fstat(fd: 3, statbuf: 0x7fff6487a890 ) = 0
0.138 ( 0.003 ms): mmap(len: 106798, prot: READ, flags: PRIVATE, fd: 3) = 0x7f8fbeb7c000
0.140 ( 0.001 ms): close(fd: 3 ) = 0
0.151 ( 0.004 ms): open(filename: 0xbeb97640, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
