Subject: [PATCH 06/12] perf: Add attribute to filter out callchains
Date: Tue,  7 Aug 2012 15:20:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1344345647-11536-7-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1344345647-11536-1-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com>

From: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

Introducing following bits to the the perf_event_attr struct:
  - exclude_callchain_kernel to filter out kernel callchain
    from the sample dump
  - exclude_callchain_user to filter out user callchain
    from the sample dump

We need to be able to disable standard user callchain dump
when we use the dwarf cfi callchain mode, because frame
pointer based user callchains are useless in this mode.

Implementing also exclude_callchain_kernel to have complete
set of options.
