Subject: [PATCH v3 2/6] perf/core: Provide a kernel-internal interface to pause perf_event
Date:   Tue, 22 Oct 2019 00:06:47 +0800
Message-Id: <20191021160651.49508-3-like.xu@linux.intel.com>

Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Exporting perf_event_pause() as an external accessor for kernel users (such
as KVM) who may do both disable perf_event and read count with just one
time to hold perf_event_ctx_lock. Also the value could be reset optionally.
