Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 05/11] perf evlist: Introduce aux perf evlist

You must define template above, otherwise I will not have how to compare
the patch _intention_ to what the patch _does_.
That could help understanding the next paragraph, where it seems two
evlists are at play, but I don't know which is which:

After reading the patch I understand that you're paving the way to allow
that ,when reading the mmaps in an evlist, instead of reading from its
mmaps, read from a "parent", i.e. at some point evlist->evlist !=
evlist, but why, just by reading this commit I can't figure it out :-\

To begin with, _why_ do we need two evlists, you need to make this
clear.

I applied the patches before this one.
