Thanks for clean up the synthetic event! This looks good to me. Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx> So now are you trying to reuse synth event for user event? Then I think you need to register a new dyn_event ops so that histogram will not submit the event. BTW, how do you filter an event written by a user process? Will you add an array of event id for the file data structure?
