From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx> As it fails to build in some systems with: libbpf.c: In function 'perf_buffer__new': libbpf.c:4515: error: unknown field 'sample_period' specified in initializer libbpf.c:4516: error: unknown field 'wakeup_events' specified in initializer Doing as: attr.sample_period = 1; I.e. not as a designated initializer makes it build everywhere.
