perf_event_open() fails and returns EOPNOTSUPP.
perf_event_open({type=PERF_TYPE_RAW, size=0x88 /* PERF_ATTR_SIZE_??? */, config=0x3, sample_period=0, sample_type=PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, read_format=PERF_FORMAT_GROUP, disabled=1, inherit=1, exclude_kernel=1, exclude_hv=1, exclude_idle=1, precise_ip=0 /* arbitrary skid */, exclude_guest=1, exclude_callchain_kernel=1, ...}, 14260, 1, -1, PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP
Other suggestions will be addressed in the next patch series. Thank you.
Best regards,
Shaopeng TAN
