[PATCH RFC 02/10] perf tools: using scandir to replace readdir

Show all headers | View raw

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

For perf_event__synthesize_threads, perf goes through all proc files
serially by readdir.
scandir did a snapshoot of proc, which is multithreading friendly.

It's possible that some threads which are added during event synthesize.
But the number of lost threads should be small.
They should not impact the final analysis.
