From 147c508f3004df6e2958f6c8867909531c2a15e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jin Yao Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2018 13:32:36 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Use target->per_thread and target->system_wide flags Mathieu Poirier reports issue in commit ("73c0ca1eee3d perf thread_map: Enumerate all threads from /proc") that it has negative impact on 'perf record --per-thread'. It has the effect of creating a kernel event for each thread in the system for 'perf record --per-thread'. Mathieu Poirier's patch ("perf util: Do not reuse target->per_thread flag") can fix this issue by creating a new target->all_threads flag. This patch is based on Mathieu Poirier's patch but it doesn't use a new target->all_threads flag. This patch just uses 'target->per_thread && target->system_wide' as a condition to check for all threads case.
