perf tools: Handle PERF_RECORD_HEADER_EVENT_TYPE properly
We removed event types from data file in following commits: 6065210 perf tools: Remove event types framework completely 44b3c57 perf tools: Remove event types from perf data file We no longer need this information, because we can get it directly from tracepoints. But we still need to handle PERF_RECORD_HEADER_EVENT_TYPE event for the sake of old perf data files created in pipe mode like: $ perf.3.4 record -o - foo >perf.data $ perf.312 report -i - < perf.data Reported-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Corey Ashford <cjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1391524668-12546-1-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
