Err,
are you thinking of something in TRACE_EVENT() that sets perf_event_attr.persistent to 1?
Btw, the more important question is are we going to need persistent events that much so that a generic approach is warranted? I guess maybe the black box events recording deal would be another user..
IOW, please elaborate :)
Thanks.
