Subject: perf evlist: Support non overwrite mode in perf_evlist__read_on_cpu
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7bb41152b9be7e31f10d8919bce5034135525d9d;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

perf evlist: Support non overwrite mode in perf_evlist__read_on_cpu

I.e. stash the overwrite mode in struct perf_evlist and act accordingly
in perf_evlist__read_on_cpu, not checking for overwrites and touching
the tail after consuming one event, like perf record does, for instance.
