From 62e503b7ed98fcdf16308cda0b5378e7840f4339 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Namhyung Kim Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2015 17:06:46 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] perf evsel: Set attr.task bit for a tracking event The perf_event_attr.task bit is to track task (fork and exit) events but it missed to be set by perf_evsel__config(). While it was not a problem in practice since setting other bits (comm/mmap) ended up being in same result, it'd be good to set it explicitly anyway. The attr->task is to track task related events (fork/exit) only but other meta events like comm and mmap[2] also needs the task events. So setting attr->comm and/or attr->mmap causes the kernel emits the task events anyway. So the attr->task is only meaningful when other bits are off but I'd like to set it for completeness.
