Enable perf timechart to use perf.data when it is not owned by current
user or root.
Example:
# perf timechart record ls
# chown Yunlong.Song:Yunlong.Song perf.data
# ls -al perf.data
-rw------- 1 Yunlong.Song Yunlong.Song 5471744 Apr 2 15:15 perf.data
# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),64(pkcs11)
Before this patch:
# perf timechart
File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
# perf timechart -f
Error: unknown switch `f'
usage: perf timechart [<options>] {record}
-i, --input <file> input file name
-o, --output <file> output file name
-w, --width <n> page width
--highlight <duration or task name>
highlight tasks. Pass duration in ns or process name.
-P, --power-only output power data only
-T, --tasks-only output processes data only
-p, --process <process>
process selector. Pass a pid or process name.
--symfs <directory>
Look for files with symbols relative to this directory
-n, --proc-num <n> min. number of tasks to print
-t, --topology sort CPUs according to topology
--io-skip-eagain skip EAGAIN errors
--io-min-time <time>
all IO faster than min-time will visually appear longer
--io-merge-dist <time>
merge events that are merge-dist us apart
As shown above, the -f option does not work at all.
After this patch:
# perf timechart
File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
# perf timechart -f
Written 0.0 seconds of trace to output.svg.
# cat output.svg

As shown above, the -f option really works now.
