perf/core: Correct event creation with PERF_FORMAT_GROUP
Andi was asking about PERF_FORMAT_GROUP vs inherited events, which led to the discovery of a bug from commit: 3dab77fb1bf8 ("perf: Rework/fix the whole read vs group stuff") - PERF_SAMPLE_GROUP = 1U << 4, + PERF_SAMPLE_READ = 1U << 4, - if (attr->inherit && (attr->sample_type & PERF_SAMPLE_GROUP)) + if (attr->inherit && (attr->read_format & PERF_FORMAT_GROUP)) is a clear fail :/ While this changes user visible behaviour; it was previously possible to create an inherited event with PERF_SAMPLE_READ; this is deemed acceptible because its results were always incorrect.
