Argh, fix your mailer. That is unreadable.
/me reflows...
Sorry about that. Now I reconfigure the mail editor by applying "Preformat" and
"Fixed Width" settings in thunderbird client. Wish it to be better.
See, that's so much better..
Oh, so you _ARE_ adding a kernel feature? I understood you only wanted
to change perf-report.
Honestly it's a perf-report feature. But it needs kernel to record the branch
type to perf_event_entry so there is a kernel patch for that in patch series.
WTH didn't you Cc the maintainers?
Very sorry not to cc to all maintainers in v1. I will be careful of sending v2
patch series.
Also, if you do this, you need to Cc the PowerPC people, since they too
implement PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_ bits.
I will cc linuxppc-...@lists.ozlabs.org when sending v2.
Thanks
