Subject: [PATCH 15/46] perf tools: Only validate is_pos for tracking evsels
Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2016 09:32:03 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1456479154-136027-16-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1456479154-136027-1-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com>
is_pos only useful for tracking events (fork, mmap, exit, ...).
Perf collects those events through evsel with 'tracking' set.
Therefore, there's no need to validate every is_pos against
evlist->is_pos.
With this commit, kernel can safely put something at the end of
a record. For example, PERF_SAMPLE_TAILSIZE [1]. However, since
we have dropped TAILSIZE, this commit is not mandatory, just
making code robust if someone implements similar things in their
private kernel.
