perf evsel: Fix period/freq terms setup
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Stephane reported that we don't set properly PERIOD sample type for
events with period term defined.

Before:
  $ perf record -e cpu/cpu-cycles,period=1000/u ls
  $ perf evlist -v
  cpu/cpu-cycles,period=1000/u: ... sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, ...

After:
  $ perf record -e cpu/cpu-cycles,period=1000/u ls
  $ perf evlist -v
  cpu/cpu-cycles,period=1000/u: ... sample_type: IP|TID|TIME, ...

Setting PERIOD sample type based on period term setup.

Committer note:

When we use -c or a period=N term in the event definition, then we don't
need to ask the kernel, for this event, via perf_event_attr.sample_type
|= PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, to put the event period in each sample for this
event, as we know it already, it is in perf_event_attr.sample_period.
