[PATCH v8 5/6] perf script: Add script print support for namespace events

From: Hari Bathini
Date: Tue Mar 07 2017 - 15:42:47 EST


Introduce a new option to display events of type PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES
and update perf-script documentation accordingly. Shown below is output
(trimmed) of perf script command with the newly introduced option, on
perf.data generated with perf record command using --namespaces option.

$ perf script --show-namespace-events
