Subject: [PATCH 08/17] perf record: Don't poll on overwrite channel
Date: Fri, 13 May 2016 07:56:05 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1463126174-119290-9-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1463126174-119290-1-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com>

There's no need to receive events from overwritable ring buffer. Instead,
perf should make them run background until something happen. This patch
makes normal events from overwrite ring buffer ignored.
