From e2b5abe0c82b45980b95ead22678861a2013c0df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Olsa Date: Wed, 4 Apr 2012 19:32:27 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] perf evlist: Use PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID perf ioctl to read event id Changing the way we retrieve the event ID. Instead of parsing out the ID out of the read data, using the PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl. Keeping the old way in place to support kernels without PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl support. This will be useful for retrieving the event ID for events with PERF_FORMAT_GROUP read format set, where it's impossible to get correct event id out of the read call data.
