From 0a10247914a5cad3caf7ef8a255c54c4d3ed2062 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Sat, 26 Feb 2011 04:51:54 +0100 Subject: perf: Set filters before mmaping events We currently set the filters after we mmap the events, this is a race that let undesired events record themselves in the buffer before we had the time to set the filters. So set the filters before they can be recorded. That also librarizes the filters setting so that filtering can be done more easily from other tools than perf record later.
