hi,
sending changes to enable group read of perf counters
for perf stat command. It allows us to read whole group
of counters within single read syscall.
v2 changes:
- fixed release segfault reported by Arnaldo
- rebased to latest Arnaldo's perf/core
- patch 1 already merged in
Also available in here:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jolsa/perf.git
perf/stat_group
Not sure why we haven't supported yet, but anyway it was
unavailable for some time due to a bug which was fixed
just recently via:
ba5213ae6b88 ("perf/core: Correct event creation with PERF_FORMAT_GROUP")
thanks,
jirka
