Right, my idea is to delete dso->kernel, to remove this confusion.

Please see my tmp.perf/core branch, there are a few patches there using
alternative methods in places previously using the botched dso->kernel.

in the previous sentence you think build-id events don't set
perf_event_attr.misc bits related to cpumode...

While here you ask if it does?

All these are synthesized, it is a matter of looking at the routines
synthesizing them :-)

Thanks, over time there were areas where multiple people touched and
added different semantics that are biting now, I'm trying to, while
fixing a bug, the one Wang Nan reported, clarify those things.

It is taking more time than I antecipated, as I'm stumbling in what look
like other bugs in the perf-probe codebase :-/
