Description

Currently PerfView does not allow me to e.g. enable MiniFilter kernel flags. Are there any plans to enable the full set (https://www.geoffchappell.com/studies/windows/km/ntoskrnl/inc/api/ntwmi/perfinfo_groupmask.htm) of flags?

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. Start by locating PerfView’s kernel-flag configuration and compare its supported flags with the linked reference. Done would mean the requested broader set of kernel flags can be enabled and verified, but the scope needs maintainer clarification.
