The intent of this test is to check we get a PERF_RECORD_EXIT as asked for by setting perf_event_attr.task=1. When the test was written we didn't had the "dummy" event so we went with the default event, "cycles". There were reports of this test failing sometimes, one of these reports was with a PREEMPT_RT_FULL, but I noticed it failing sometimes with an aarch64 Firefly board. In the kernel the call to perf_event_task_output(), that generates the PERF_RECORD_EXIT may fail when there is not enough memory in the ring buffer, if the ring buffer is paused, etc. So switch to using the "dummy" event to use the ring buffer just for what the test was designed for, avoiding uneeded PERF_RECORD_SAMPLEs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
