Pierre Habouzit	7eac7e9e72	perf util: Fix do_read() to fail on EOF instead of busy-looping ... While toying with perf, I've noticed that perf record can easily enter a busy loop when doing something as silly as: $ perf record -A ls Yeah, do_read here really wants to read a known size, not being able to should die(), not busy-loop ;) That was the cause for the bug.

Peter Zijlstra	1c222bce7d	perf tools: Fix multi-counter stat bug caused by incorrect reading of perf.data file header ... Brice Goglin reported that only the first result from a multi-counter perf record --stat run is accurate, the rest looks bogus. A silly mistake made us re-read the first attribute for every recorded attribute.
