It was reported that some perf event setup can make fork failed on
ARM64. It was the case of a group of mixed hw and sw events and it
failed in perf_event_init_task() due to armpmu_event_init().
The ARM PMU code checks if all the events in a group belong to the
same PMU except for software events. But it didn't set the event_caps
of inherited events and no longer identify them as software events.
Therefore the test failed in a child process.
A simple reproducer is:
$ perf stat -e '{cycles,cs,instructions}' perf bench sched messaging
# Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
perf: fork(): Invalid argument
The perf stat was fine but the perf bench failed in fork(). Let's
inherit the event caps from the parent.
