What is > the intent? I have multiple tracepoints(say ~20-25), i tried it to enable them for all CPU's but when i do attr->inherit = 1, it doesnt mmap the FD( Gives EINVAL). When i digged the perf code a bit, i found : if (evlist->cpus->map[0] < 0) no_inherit = true; So, i thought may be it doesn't allow trace on all CPU's when i inherit.
