I'm not sure how to test the resulting perf.
I can record traces and send you a "bundle". With that and following the instruction in the HOWTO.md on github you should be able to validate the openCSD package.
OK. Thanks Mathieu. I've tested that and the debian perf build does indeed decode that correctly, (and the existing 4.16 perf barfs quickly with a complaint that it can't decode it). The new one correctly depends on libopencsd so everything will work nicely for users.
So this is now essentially done from a technical POV, with just some tidying-up to do at our leisure.
1a) wait for libopencsd to get into debian. 2a) wait for new kernel to be uploaded with new dependency enabled 3a) let those migrate to testing
At this point users (of testing) are sorted.
1b) Merge my various patches, or similar functionality 2b) Do a 0.8.2 release with those in 3b) Upload that.
There is no deadline on any of 'b', but if we do it relatively soon I'll remember what the point of the patches was. In 3 months time I'll have forgotten it all :-)
