perf: Add cgroup support

Browse source 
This kernel patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on
container groups (cgroups). This is for use in per-cpu mode only.

The cgroup to monitor is passed as a file descriptor in the pid
argument to the syscall. The file descriptor must be opened to
the cgroup name in the cgroup filesystem. For instance, if the
cgroup name is foo and cgroupfs is mounted in /cgroup, then the
file descriptor is opened to /cgroup/foo. Cgroup mode is
activated by passing PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP in the flags argument
to the syscall.

For instance to measure in cgroup foo on CPU1 assuming
cgroupfs is mounted under /cgroup:

struct perf_event_attr attr;
int cgroup_fd, fd;

cgroup_fd = open("/cgroup/foo", O_RDONLY);
fd = perf_event_open(&attr, cgroup_fd, 1, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP);
close(cgroup_fd);

This option extends the per-cpu mode to restrict monitoring to
threads which belong to the cgroup specificied and run on the
designated cpu.
Say N if unsure.
