If we check the UID of the pid from /proc/pid/status and the UID matches
our current user, we should be able to forego the authorization dialog.
This should fix a regression where sysprof worked from jhbuild when
profiling a process you have access to.
This fixes the "auto-stop" feature when the child exits, at least in the
case of /usr/bin/gnome-calculator. However, when testing with gedit I
did not see it accurately clean up, so something still needs to be
troubleshooted.
We were not getting the proper value for time. We need sample_id_all set
according to my cursory reading of the core.c in the kernel. Also, the
time is aligned to 64-bit (after the comm field).
Without this, after logging in you are already multiple seconds into your
profiling session recording. Not ideal. So instead, we do the async polkit
auth upfront during SpSource::prepare(), and then toggle ready after we
have received notification.
This is a major redesign a modernization of Sysprof. The core data
structures and design are largely the same, but it has been ported to
Gtk3 and has lots of additions that should make your profiling experience
smoother. Especially for those that are new to profiling.
There are some very simple help docs added, but we really need the
experts to come in and write some documentation here.
