Subject: [PATCH 11/28] perf top: Allow asking for the maximum allowed sample rate
Date: Mon,  5 Mar 2018 11:29:15 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180305142932.16921-12-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180305142932.16921-1-acme@kernel.org>

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Add the handy '-F max' shortcut, just introduced to 'perf record', to
reading and using the kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate value as the
user supplied sampling frequency:
