Subject: [PATCH v8 4/4] tools/perf: Allow inherit + PERF_SAMPLE_READ when opening events
Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2024 14:39:11 +0100
Message-ID: <20240612133911.3447625-5-ben.gainey@arm.com>
In-Reply-To: <20240612133911.3447625-1-ben.gainey@arm.com>

The "perf record" tool will now default to this new mode if the user
specifies a sampling group when not in system-wide mode, and when
"--no-inherit" is not specified.

This change updates evsel to allow the combination of inherit
and PERF_SAMPLE_READ.

A fallback is implemented for kernel versions where this feature is not
supported.
