From 277ce1efa7b504873cd32a4106654836c2f80e1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kan Liang Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2020 08:30:02 -0800 Subject: perf header: Add check for unexpected use of reserved membrs in event attr The perf.data may be generated by a newer version of perf tool, which support new input bits in attr, e.g. new bit for branch_sample_type. The perf.data may be parsed by an older version of perf tool later. The old perf tool may parse the perf.data incorrectly. There is no warning message for this case. Current perf header never check for unknown input bits in attr. When read the event desc from header, check the stored event attr. The reserved bits, sample type, read format and branch sample type will be checked.
