Subject: [PATCH V2 1/8] perf tools: remove stale perf evlist mmap read for backward
Date: Wed,  6 Dec 2017 15:32:56 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1512603183-42754-2-git-send-email-kan.liang@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1512603183-42754-1-git-send-email-kan.liang@intel.com>

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

perf_evlist__mmap_read_catchup and perf_evlist__mmap_read_backward are
only for overwrite mode.
But they read the evlist->mmap buffer which is for non-overwrite mode.

It did not bring any serious problem yet, because there is no one use
it.

Remove the unused interfaces.
