[PATCH 02/10] perf top: Fix unresolved comm when -s comm is used

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Fri Oct 02 2015 - 16:27:03 EST


From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@xxxxxxxxxx>

The perf top uses 'dso,symbol' sort keys by default so it overlooked a
problem in task's comm resolving. When the sort key contains 'comm',
some task's comm is not shown properly. This is because the
perf_top__mmap_read_idx() checks the cpumode value improperly.

The cpumode value of non-sample events are 0 (PERF_RECORD_MISC_CPUMODE_
UNKNOWN) so the events will be ignored by the switch statement. This patch
allows it for non-sample events.
