Subject: [PATCH 4/4] perf, tools, record: Remove suggestion to enable APIC
Date: Fri,  6 Apr 2018 13:38:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180406203812.3087-5-andi@firstfloor.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180406203812.3087-1-andi@firstfloor.org>

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

perf record suggests to enable the APIC on errors.

APIC is practically always used today and the problem is usually somewhere else.

Just remove the outdated suggestion.
