Subject: [PATCH V2 1/2] perf tools: set no_aux_samples for the tracking event in PT
Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2017 10:16:55 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170630141656.1626-1-kan.liang@intel.com> (raw)

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

The reason of introducing the tracking event (a dummy software event) is
to collect side-band information. Additional sampling is wasteful.
no_aux_samples should be set for tracking event.

Signed-off-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

Changes since V1
- new patch to set no_aux_samples for the tracking event (jirka)
