From a5b0153c880c2775bf5bdd78306f0a47e860ea04 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adrian Hunter Date: Tue, 12 Aug 2014 18:04:28 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Fix CLOEXEC probe for perf_event_paranoid == 2 With /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid set to 2, the probe of PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC would fail. Fix by excluding kernel profiling from the probe event.
