perf record: Extend trace writing to multi AIO Multi AIO trace writing allows caching more kernel data into userspace memory postponing trace writing for the sake of overall profiling data thruput increase. It could be seen as kernel data buffer extension into userspace memory. With an --aio option value different from 0 (default value is 1) the tool has capability to cache more and more data into user space along with delegating spill to AIO. That allows avoiding to suspend at record__aio_sync() between calls of record__mmap_read_evlist() and increases profiling data thruput at the cost of userspace memory.
