From bf8e8f4b832972c76d64ab2e2837a48397144887 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adrian Hunter Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2014 09:00:51 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf evlist: Add 'system_wide' option Add an option to cause a selected event to be opened always without a pid when configured by perf_evsel__config(). This is needed when using the sched_switch tracepoint to follow object code execution. sched_switch occurs before the task switch and so it cannot record it in a context limited to that task. Note that also means that sched_switch is useless when capturing data per-thread, as is the 'context-switches' software event for the same reason.
