[PATCH v5 3/4] perf tools: Add printing perf_event_attr type symbol in perf_event_attr__fprintf()
From: Yang Jihong
Date: Fri Jun 23 2023 - 01:47:19 EST
When printing perf_event_attr, always display perf_event_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,mem:0x0 -C 0 true
