perf tools: Introduce 'P' modifier to request max precision
The 'P' will cause the event to get maximum possible detected precise level. Following record: $ perf record -e cycles:P ... will detect maximum precise level for 'cycles' event and use it. Commiter note: Testing it: $ perf record -e cycles:P usleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data (9 samples) ] $ perf evlist cycles:P $ perf evlist -v cycles:P: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 2, sample_id_all: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1 $ Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1444068369-20978-6-git-send-email-jolsa@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
