Subject: [PATCH v9 4/4] tools/perf: Allow inherit + PERF_SAMPLE_READ when opening events
The "perf record" tool will now default to this new mode if the user
specifies a sampling group when not in system-wide mode, and when
"--no-inherit" is not specified.
This change updates evsel to allow the combination of inherit
and PERF_SAMPLE_READ.
A fallback is implemented for kernel versions where this feature is not
supported.
