    perf record: Do not ask for precise_ip with --no-samples · 4b4cd503
    Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
    When the user doesn't specify an event with -e/--event, 'perf record'
    will use as a default the "cycles" event with the highest level of
    precision in perf_event_attr.precise_ip, but --no-samples, if present,
    is incompatible with precise_ip != 0, so use the newly introduced
    __perf_event__add_default(precise = false) to fix that:
    
    Before:
    
      # perf record -n usleep 1
      Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
      Error:
      The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cycles:ppp).
      /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
      No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?
      #
    
    After:
    
      # perf record -n usleep 1
      Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
