mainlining shenanigans

Stephane found that the name of the forked process in a system-wide mode is wrong when --delay option is used. For example, # perf record -a --delay=1000 noploop 3 The noploop process will run a busy loop for 3 second. And on an idle machine it should show up at the top in the perf report. It works well without the --delay option. But if I add the option, it showed 'perf' not 'noploop'. # perf report -s comm -q | head -3 52.94% perf 16.65% swapper 12.04% chrome It turned out that the dummy event didn't work at all and it missed COMM and MMAP events for the noploop process (and others too). We should enable the dummy event immediately in system-wide mode, as the enable-on-exec would work only for task events. With this change, # perf report -s comm -q | head -3 52.75% noploop 17.03% swapper 12.83% chrome Reported-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Acked-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210827233212.3121037-1-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> |

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.
