Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] perf arm-spe: Correct sample flags for dummy event
Date: Wed, 19 May 2021 12:15:44 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210519041546.1574961-3-leo.yan@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210519041546.1574961-1-leo.yan@linaro.org>

The dummy event is mainly used for mmap, the TIME sample is only needed
for per-cpu case so that the perf tool can rely on the correct timing
for parsing symbols.  And the CPU sample is useless for mmap.

The BRANCH_STACK sample bit will be always reset for the dummy event in
the function evsel__config(), so don't need to repeatedly reset it for
Arm SPE specific.

So this patch only enables TIME sample for per-cpu mmap.
