If packet processing wants to know the packet is bound with which ETM version, it needs to access metadata to decide that based on metadata magic number; but we cannot simply to use CPU logic ID number as index to access metadata sequential array, especially when system have hotplugged off CPUs, the metadata array are only allocated for online CPUs but not offline CPUs, so the CPU logic number doesn't match with its index in the array. This patch is to change tuple from traceID-CPU# to traceID-metadata, thus it can use the tuple to retrieve metadata pointer according to traceID. For safe accessing metadata fields, this patch provides helper function cs_etm__get_cpu() which is used to return CPU number according to traceID; cs_etm_decoder__buffer_packet() is the first consumer for this helper function.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
