From 30269dc1a17df5117a2e267835863d4466c3569d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Mon, 3 Jul 2017 13:05:43 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf evsel: Allow asking for max precise_ip in new_cycles() There are cases where we want to leave attr.precise_ip as zero, such as when using 'perf record --no-samples', where this would make the kernel return -EINVAL.
