Subject: perf tools: Unset perf_event_attr::freq when period term is set
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ab35a7d0ee59a36c9c567defe43c1adb72e9240c;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

perf tools: Unset perf_event_attr::freq when period term is set

We need to unset 'perf_event_attr::freq' bit (default 1) when
'period' term is specified within event definition like:

  -e 'cpu/cpu-cycles,call-graph=fp,time,period=100000'

otherwise it will handle the period value as frequency
(and fail if it crossed the maximum allowed frequency value).
