Hello Mathieu,

 

Does this patch set have impact on other modes as well? I’m thinking --switch-output –

it works kind of similar to --snapshot, i.e. may write into perf.data on SIGUSR2 (or on other triggers).

 

What was the high-level reason for these changes? I can see that you adjust perf ring buffer

to match sink hardware buffer. Does this mismatch cause some visible trace loss?

 

Thanks,

Wojciech
