I suspect what you're rather interested in is the sample tid.

Ditto.

There you parse the pid from the trace content. That's fine because
it's actually the tid that is saved on the trace event. But this one
is not pid-namespace safe (it saves current->pid directly) while
sample->tid is pid-namespace safe (it uses task_pid_nr_ns).

So I suggest you to use sample->tid instead, plus that's going to be
consistant with what you did above.

Thanks.
