Subject: [PATCH 2/2] perf record: reset event name when falling back to cpu-clock
Date: Tue,  8 May 2012 10:50:11 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1336495811-58461-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com> (raw)

perf-record defaults to the H/W cycles event and if it is
not supported falls back to cpu-clock. Reset the event name
as well.
