Sohaib Mohamed e456d9b2dd perf bench: Use unbuffered output when pipe/tee'ing to a file
[ Upstream commit f0a29c9647ff8bbb424641f79bc1894e83dec218 ]

The output of 'perf bench' gets buffered when I pipe it to a file or to
tee, in such a way that I can see it only at the end.

E.g.

  $ perf bench internals synthesize -t
  < output comes out fine after each test run >

  $ perf bench internals synthesize -t | tee file.txt
  < output comes out only at the end of all tests >

This patch resolves this issue for 'bench' and 'test' subcommands.

See, also:

  $ perf bench mem all | tee file.txt
  $ perf bench sched all | tee file.txt
  $ perf bench internals all -t | tee file.txt
  $ perf bench internals all | tee file.txt

Committer testing:

It really gets staggered, i.e. outputs in bursts, when the buffer fills
up and has to be drained to make up space for more output.

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.
