perf daemon: Add daemon command
Add a daemon skeleton with a minimal base (non) functionality, covering various setup in start command. Add an initial perf-daemon.txt with basic info. This is in response to pople asking for the possibility to be able run record long running sessions on the background. The patchset that starts with this adds support to configure and run record sessions on background via new 'perf daemon' command. This is useful for being able to use perf as a flight recorder that one can interact with asking for events to be enabled or disabled, added or removed, etc. Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Alexei Budankov <abudankov@huawei.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Michael Petlan <mpetlan@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210208200908.1019149-2-jolsa@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
