Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] perf pmu: Make pmu_alias_terms weak again
Date: Wed, 29 Oct 2025 15:26:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251029222638.816100-1-irogers@google.com> (raw)

The terms for a json event should be weak so they don't override
command line options.

Fixes: 84bae3af20d0 ("perf pmu: Don't eagerly parse event terms")
Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>
