perf record: Do not ask for precise_ip with --no-samples
When the user doesn't specify an event with -e/--event, 'perf record'
will use as a default the "cycles" event with the highest level of
precision in perf_event_attr.precise_ip, but --no-samples, if present,
is incompatible with precise_ip != 0, so use the newly introduced
__perf_event__add_default(precise = false) to fix that:
Before:
# perf record -n usleep 1
Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cycles:ppp).
/bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?
#
After:
# perf record -n usleep 1
Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
