From fd0d000b2c34aa43d4e92dcf0dfaeda7e123008a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Richter Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2012 20:19:08 +0200 Subject: perf: Pass last sampling period to perf_sample_data_init() We always need to pass the last sample period to perf_sample_data_init(), otherwise the event distribution will be wrong. Thus, modifiyng the function interface with the required period as argument. So basically a pattern like this: perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL); data.period = event->hw.last_period; will now be like that: perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL, event->hw.last_period); Avoids unininitialized data.period and simplifies code.
