[PATCH V3 5/6] perf/core: calculate side-band events overhead
From: kan . liang
Date: Thu Dec 08 2016 - 16:28:43 EST
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxx>
Iterating all events which need to receive side-band events also bring
some overhead.
The side-band events overhead PERF_CORE_SB_OVERHEAD is a common overhead
type.
