[PATCH 3/4] perf tools: Add printing perf_event_attr->type symbol in perf_event_attr__fprintf()
From: Yang Jihong
Date: Wed Apr 19 2023 - 08:31:30 EST
When printing perf_event_attr, always display attr->type and its symbol
to improve the readability of debugging information.
Before:
# perf --debug verbose=2 record -e cycles,cpu-clock,sched:sched_switch,branch-load-misses,r101 -C 0 true
