Add a 'list' command to display all running sessions. It's the default
command if no other command is specified.
Example:
# cat ~/.perfconfig
[daemon]
base=/opt/perfdata
[session-cycles]
run = -m 10M -e cycles --overwrite --switch-output -a
[session-sched]
run = -m 20M -e sched:* --overwrite --switch-output -a
Start the daemon:
# perf daemon start
List sessions:
# perf daemon
[771394:daemon] base: /opt/perfdata
[771395:cycles] perf record -m 10M -e cycles --overwrite --switch-output -a
[771396:sched] perf record -m 20M -e sched:* --overwrite --switch-output -a
List sessions with more info:
# perf daemon -v
[771394:daemon] base: /opt/perfdata
output: /opt/perfdata/output
[771395:cycles] perf record -m 10M -e cycles --overwrite --switch-output -a
base: /opt/perfdata/session-cycles
output: /opt/perfdata/session-cycles/output
[771396:sched] perf record -m 20M -e sched:* --overwrite --switch-output -a
base: /opt/perfdata/session-sched
output: /opt/perfdata/session-sched/output
The 'output' file is perf record output for specific session.
Note you have to stop all running perf processes manually at this point,
stop command is coming in following patches.
Committer notes:
Fixup union initialization to overcome this in multiple older systems:

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.
