[PATCH 4/7] perf intel-pt: Synthesize CBR events when last seen value changes

From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Sat Jun 22 2019 - 05:34:32 EST


The first core-to-bus ratio (CBR) event will not be shown if --itrace 's'
option (skip initial number of events) is used, nor if time intervals are
specified that do not include the start of tracing. Change the logic to
record the last CBR value seen by the user, and synthesize CBR events
whenever that changes.
