"Introduce API to remap event names exposed by LTTng"
failed to map the event names enabled by the user to tracepoint names
known to the kernel. For instance, tracing with the kmem_kmalloc event
enabled is not gathering any event. This issue applies to all tracepoint
events declared with a different name within LTTng than within the Linux
kernel.
By using the timestamp sampled at space reservation when the packet is
being filled as "end timestamp" for a packet, we can ensure there is no
overlap between packet timestamp ranges, so that packet timestamp end <=
following packets timestamp begin.
Overlap between consecutive packets becomes an issue when the end
timestamp of a packet is greater than the end timestamp of a following
packet, IOW a packet completely contains the timestamp range of a
following packet. This kind of situation does not allow trace viewers
to do binary search within the packet timestamps. This kind of situation
will typically never occur if packets are significantly larger than
event size, but this fix ensures it can never even theoretically happen.
The only case where packets can still theoretically overlap is if they
have equal begin and end timestamps, which is valid.
