Andi Kleen 5039c8a28f perf script: Allow printing period for non freq mode groups
When using leader sampling the values of the not sampled but counted
events are shown by perf script in "period".

Currently printing period is only allowed when the main event has a
period, that is it is in frequency mode.

This implies that we cannot dump the values of counted events when the
leader event is not in frequency mode.

Just remove the check that the period must be set on all events. It will
just be printed as 0 instead if it's not available.

This fixes the following:

  $ perf record -c 100000 -e '{cycles,branches}:S'
  $ perf script -F event,period

Further commentary by Jiri Olsa:

The period will be the value of configured period, not 0:

int perf_evsel__parse_sample(struct ...
  ...
  data->period = evsel->attr.sample_period;

  $ perf record -c 100000
  $ perf script -F event,period | head -3
  Failed to open /tmp/perf-2048.map, continuing without symbols
      100000 cycles:ppp:
      100000 cycles:ppp:

other than that I think we can remove that check, because we will have
always sane number in period

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
