Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] perf: Use CAP_SYS_ADMIN with perf_event_paranoid checks
Date:   Tue, 6 Aug 2019 23:35:55 -0400
Message-ID: <70ce92d9c252bbafa883a6b5b3c96cf10d1a5b31.1565146171.git.ilubashe@akamai.com>

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

The kernel is using CAP_SYS_ADMIN instead of euid==0 to override
perf_event_paranoid check. Make perf do the same.
