Subject: [PATCH 2/2] perf trace: Check and discard not only 'nr' but also '__syscall_nr'
Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2016 22:14:25 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1456492465-5946-1-git-send-email-treeze.taeung@gmail.com> (raw)

Format fields of a syscall have the first variable
'__syscall_nr' or 'nr' that mean the syscall number.
But it isn't relevant here so drop it.

'nr' among fields of syscall was renamed '__syscall_nr'.
So add exception handling to drop '__syscall_nr' and
modify the comment for this excpetion handling.
