Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2016 17:11:28 +0800 From: "Wangnan (F)" <wangnan0@...wei.com> To: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@...hat.com> CC: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@...nel.org>, Brendan Gregg <brendan.d.gregg@...il.com>, pi3orama <pi3orama@....com>, lizefan 00213767 <lizefan@...wei.com>, <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: [offlist] Re: [GIT PULL 00/54] perf tools: Bugfix, BPF improvements and overwrite ring buffer support Hi Arnaldo, We didn't make too much progress on this patchset for several weeks. Kernel support of bpf-output has already been merged by v4.4, but perf side code is still missing in v4.5. Do you have any plan on it? Brendan asked this feature this month. I think he would be disappointed because he still unable to use them on v4.5 kernel... Thank you.
