[PATCH V2 05/12] perf auxtrace: Add optional error flags to the itrace 'e' option

From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Fri Jul 10 2020 - 11:20:05 EST


Allow the 'e' option to be followed by flags which will affect what errors
will or will not be reported. Each flag must be preceded by either '+' or
'-'. The flags are:
o overflow
l trace data lost
