    Add the handy '-F max' shortcut to reading and using the
    kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate value as the user supplied
    sampling frequency:
    
      # perf record -F max sleep 1
      info: Using a maximum frequency rate of 15,000 Hz
      [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
      [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.019 MB perf.data (14 samples) ]
      # sysctl kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate
      kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate = 15000
      # perf evlist -v
      cycles:ppp: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 15000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 3, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
    
      # perf record -F 10 sleep 1
      [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
      [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.019 MB perf.data (4 samples) ]
      # perf evlist -v
