Jiri Olsa aee426d18f perf tools: Synthesize GROUP_DESC feature in pipe mode
[ Upstream commit e8fedff1cc ]

Stephan reported, that pipe mode does not carry the group information
and thus the piped report won't display the grouped output for following
command:

  # perf record -e '{cycles,instructions,branches}' -a sleep 4 | perf report

It has no idea about the group setup, so it will display events
separately:

  # Overhead  Command          Shared Object             ...
  # ........  ...............  .......................
  #
       6.71%  swapper          [kernel.kallsyms]
       2.28%  offlineimap      libpython2.7.so.1.0
       0.78%  perf             [kernel.kallsyms]
  ...

Fix GROUP_DESC feature record to be synthesized in pipe mode, so the
report output is grouped if there are groups defined in record:

  #                 Overhead  Command          Shared    ...
  # ........................  ...............  .......
  #
       7.57%   0.16%   0.30%  swapper          [kernel
       1.87%   3.15%   2.46%  offlineimap      libpyth
       1.33%   0.00%   0.00%  perf             [kernel
  ...

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
