Should the name of the file not more specific? I mean .events can mean everything? Every program may have a demand for this generic name. Why not ~/.perf-events? Even more standard [1]: $XDG_CACHE_HOME/perf/events (i.e. ~/.cache/perf/events) [1] http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
