[PATCH v12 22/33] perf evsel: Don't pass evsel with sample
From: Ian Rogers
Date: Mon Apr 13 2026 - 00:23:09 EST
Arrange for the sample to contain the evsel and so it is unnecessary
to pass the evsel as well. This is done for uniformity, although
parsing of the sample is arguably a special case. Add bound checks in
perf_evsel__parse_id_sample by switching to using an index and
checking it doesn't become negative.
