Message-ID: <20140521150613.GA28702@redhat.com> (raw)

I thought we had this nailed down a while ago, but it still keeps
popping up...

WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 32310 at kernel/events/core.c:2384 task_ctx_sched_out+0x6b/0x80()

There was on perf activity at all going on at the time.
I had told trinity to do -g vm which excludes all non-VM related syscalls.

What is perf_event_comm doing ? Is that storing some state in case
I later decide to run perf ?
