From cb24d01d217497fb32467de22d773655f47d3896 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2015 10:04:23 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf trace: Enable events when doing system wide tracing and starting a workload commit f7aa222ff397 Author: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Tue Feb 3 13:25:39 2015 -0300 perf trace: No need to enable evsels for workload started from perf The assumption was that whenever a workload is specified, the attr.enable_on_exec evsel flag would be set, but that is not happening when perf_record_opts.system_wide is set, for instance That resulted in both perf_evlist__enable() and attr.enable_on_exec being not called/set, which made the events to remain disabled while the workload runs, producing no output. Fix it, by calling perf_evlist__enable() in the 'trace' tool when forking and not targetting a workload started from trace v2: Test against !target__none(), as suggested by Namhyung Kim, that is what is used in perf_evsel__config() when deciding if the attr.enable_on_exec flag to be set. More work is needed to cover other cases such as opts->initial_delay.
