[PATCH 1/8] perf tools: Add fallback for exclude_guest
Posted by Namhyung Kim 1 month, 4 weeks ago
Commit 7b100989b4f6bce70 ("perf evlist: Remove __evlist__add_default")
changed to parse "cycles:P" event instead of creating a new cycles
event for perf record.  But it also changed the way how modifiers are
handled so it doesn't set the exclude_guest bit by default.

It seems Apple M1 PMU requires exclude_guest set and returns EOPNOTSUPP
if not.  Let's add a fallback so that it can work with default events.

Fixes: 7b100989b4f6bce70 ("perf evlist: Remove __evlist__add_default")
