From 393b2ad8c757ba3ccd2a99ca5bbcd6db4d3fa53d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arjan van de Ven Date: Sat, 12 Sep 2009 07:52:47 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] perf: Add a timestamp to fork events perf timechart needs to know when a process forked, in order to be able to visualize properly when tasks start. This patch adds a time field to the event structure, and fills it in appropriately.
