:-)

Not entirely, its just that I've not seen this userspace code in years
and I'm pretty clueless.

How about so then?

Subject: perf, record: Add clockid parameter
From: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]>
Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2015 15:32:01 +0100

Teach perf-record about the new perf_event_attr::{use_clockid, clockid}
fields. Add a simple parameter to set the clock (if any) to be used for
the events to be recorded into the data file.

Since we store the entire perf_event_attr in the EVENT_DESC section we
also already store the used clockid in the data file.
