363b785f38 added synthesized fork events and set a thread's parent id
to itself. Since we are already processing /proc/<pid>/status the ppid
can be determined properly. Make it so.
Performance impact measured on a sparc based T5-8 (1024 CPUs):
$ ps -efL | wc -l
20185
Current code:
$ time perf record -o perf-no-ppid.data -e cpu-clock -F 1000 -a -v -BN --
usleep 1
mmap size 532480B
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
failed to write feature 9
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB perf-no-ppid.data ]
real 0m26.144s
user 0m0.452s
sys 0m25.564s
With PPID patch:
$ time ./perf_ppid record -o perf-ppid.data -e cpu-clock -F 1000 -a -v -BN --
usleep 1
mmap size 532480B
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
