Subject: [PATCH] perf mem: enable simultaneous sampling of loads/stores
Message-ID: <20141216165358.GA9310@thinkpad>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.21 (2010-09-15)
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org


This patch modifies perf mem to default to sampling loads
and stores simultaneously. It could only do one or the other
before yet there was not hardware restriction preventing
simultaneous collection. With this patch, one run is sufficient
to collect both.

By default load/stores are sampled now:
$ perf mem rec
$ perf mem rep

It is still possible to sample only loads or stores by using the
-t option:
 $ perf mem -t load rec
 $ perf mem -t load rep
Or
 $ perf mem -t store rec
 $ perf mem -t store rep

The perf report TUI will show one event at a time. The store
output will contain a Weight column which will be empty.
