From d610d98b5de6860feb21539726e9af7c9094151c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Namhyung Kim Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2013 16:27:13 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] perf: Generate EXIT event only once per task context perf_event_task_event() iterates pmu list and generate events for each eligible pmu context. But if task_event has task_ctx like in EXIT it'll generate events even though the pmu doesn't have an eligible one. Fix it by moving the code to proper places.
