Changes since v1:
- Check event->attr.sample_type & PERF_SAMPLE_RAW before
calling perf_sample_save_raw_data().
- Subject has been changed to reflect the change of solution.
Changes since v2:
- Move sample_type check into perf_sample_save_raw_data().
- (New patch) Move sample_type check into perf_sample_save_callchain().
- (New patch) Move sample_type check into perf_sample_save_brstack().
Original commit message from v1:
perf/core: Trim dyn_size if raw data is absent
Yabin Cui (3):
perf/core: Save raw sample data conditionally based on sample type
perf: core: Check sample_type in perf_sample_save_callchain
perf: core: Check sample_type in perf_sample_save_brstack

2.45.0.118.g7fe29c98d7-goog
Currently, space for raw sample data is always allocated within sample
records for both BPF output and tracepoint events. This leads to unused
space in sample records when raw sample data is not requested.
This patch checks sample type of an event before saving raw sample data
in both BPF output and tracepoint event handling logic. Raw sample data
will only be saved if explicitly requested, reducing overhead when it
is not needed.
Fixes: 0a9081cf0a11 ("perf/core: Add perf_sample_save_raw_data() helper")
