Hi Arnaldo,
Currently, we have bpf-event default OFF for perf-record, with option to
turn it ON; while bpf-event is default ON for perf-top, with option to
turn if OFF. I think this is a little confusing.
How about we set them both to default ON, and add option to turn it OFF?
I think we still have time to make the change.
Thanks,
Song
