From 3606c0e1a1050d397ad759a62607e419fd8b0ccb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: German Gomez Date: Tue, 18 Jan 2022 14:40:54 +0000 Subject: perf evsel: Override attr->sample_period for non-libpfm4 events MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit A previous patch preventing "attr->sample_period" values from being overridden in pfm events changed a related behaviour in arm-spe. Before said patch: perf record -c 10000 -e arm_spe_0// -- sleep 1 Would yield an SPE event with period=10000. After the patch, the period in "-c 10000" was being ignored because the arm-spe code initializes sample_period to a non-zero value. This patch restores the previous behaviour for non-libpfm4 events.
