[PATCH 35/60] perf evsel: Add support for synthesized sample type

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Mon Apr 20 2020 - 07:56:14 EST


From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx>

For reporting purposes, an evsel sample can have a callchain synthesized
from AUX area data. Add support for keeping track of synthesized sample
types. Note, the recorded sample_type cannot be changed because it is
needed to continue to parse events.
