From 9f0c4fa111dc909ca545c45ea20ec84da555ce16 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kan Liang Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2020 10:11:10 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] perf/core: Add a new PERF_EV_CAP_SIBLING event capability Current perf assumes that events in a group are independent. Close an event doesn't impact the value of the other events in the same group. If the closed event is a member, after the event closure, other events are still running like a group. If the closed event is a leader, other events are running as singleton events. Add PERF_EV_CAP_SIBLING to allow events to indicate they require being part of a group, and when the leader dies they cannot exist independently.
