Namhyung Kim bb07d62e03 perf record: Fix wrong comm in system-wide mode with delay
Stephane found that the name of the forked process in a system-wide
mode is wrong when --delay option is used.  For example,

  # perf record -a --delay=1000  noploop 3

The noploop process will run a busy loop for 3 second.  And on an idle
machine it should show up at the top in the perf report.  It works
well without the --delay option.  But if I add the option, it showed
'perf' not 'noploop'.

  # perf report -s comm -q | head -3
      52.94%  perf
      16.65%  swapper
      12.04%  chrome

It turned out that the dummy event didn't work at all and it missed
COMM and MMAP events for the noploop process (and others too).  We
should enable the dummy event immediately in system-wide mode, as the
enable-on-exec would work only for task events.

With this change,

  # perf report -s comm -q | head -3
      52.75%  noploop
      17.03%  swapper
      12.83%  chrome

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.
