    perf tools: change event inheritance logic in stat and record · 2e6cdf99
    Stephane Eranian 提交于
    By default, event inheritance across fork and pthread_create was on but the -i
    option of stat and record, which enabled inheritance, led to believe it was off
    by default.
    
    This patch fixes this logic by inverting the meaning of the -i option.  By
    default inheritance is on whether you attach to a process (-p), a thread (-t)
    or start a process. If you pass -i, then you turn off inheritance. Turning off
    inheritance if you don't need it, helps limit perf resource usage as well.
    
    The patch also fixes perf stat -t xxxx and perf record -t xxxx which did not
    start the counters.
