It gives me:

/home/mingo/tip/tools/lib/traceevent/parse-filter.c: In function âcreate_arg_itemâ:
/home/mingo/tip/tools/lib/traceevent/parse-filter.c:343:9: warning: comparison between âenum filter_arg_typeâ and âenum event_typeâ [-Wenum-compare]
/home/mingo/tip/tools/lib/traceevent/parse-filter.c:339:2: warning: case value â8â not in enumerated type âenum filter_arg_typeâ [-Wswitch]

Had this been in tools/perf/ it would use -Werror already and
you'd have fixed it, not requiring me to unpull these bits :-/

So can we please make a libevent.so, built sanely within
tools/perf/lib/ or such and distributed together with perf so
that the two can never get out of sync?

Thanks,

Ingo
