Vince,
Thanks for the suggestion. I hadn't tried that, and was not knowledgeable about
grouping. Unfortunately, I still see the same behavior using grouping.
That is, if I had the following:
Perf stat -e \{a,b,c\} /bin/ls
(assume a, b and c are legit events)
the event a is added, configured for and then deleted. Then, then a and b are
added, configured for, then deleted. Finally, a, b and c are added, configured
for and deleted. This pattern would continue for however many events I specify.
This is probably just broken in my own environment. I'll investigate more. Of
course, any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks again,
Chris
