perf record is used directly in the application profiling labs so it should be presented in the application profiling slides

The issue should likely be taken the other way around:

  • perf is currently first introduced in application tracing slides
  • perf is introduced here because we are introducing uprobes for userspace uprobes
  • removing it from here would either makes us remove uprobes, or use another tool to manipulate uprobes (uprobe script from perf-tools, raw tracefs read/writes). Both are unsatisfying solutions
  • the better solution is likely to introduce a proper perf lab right in tracing labs to start exercising perf. Then perf usage in other labs should be a continuation on perf learning
