perf trace: Sample the CPU too
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Sample, record, parse and print the CPU field - it had all zeroes before.

Before (watch the second column, the CPU values):

            perf-32685 [000]     0.000000: sched_wakeup_new: task perf:32686 [120] success=1 [011]

After:

            perf-32685 [001]     0.000000: sched_wakeup_new: task perf:32686 [120] success=1 [011]

So we can now see how this workload migrated between CPUs.
