Adding support to carry build id data in mmap2 event.
The build id data replaces maj/min/ino/ino_generation
fields, which are also used to identify map's binary,
so it's ok to replace them with build id data:
union {
struct {
u32 maj;
u32 min;
u64 ino;
u64 ino_generation;
};
struct {
u8 build_id_size;
u8 __reserved_1;
u16 __reserved_2;
u8 build_id[20];
};
};
Replaced maj/min/ino/ino_generation fields give us size
of 24 bytes. We use 20 bytes for build id data, 1 byte
for size and rest is unused.
There's new misc bit for mmap2 to signal there's build
id data in it:
#define PERF_RECORD_MISC_MMAP_BUILD_ID (1 << 14)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
