This patch adds a new option to enable taken branch stack sampling, i.e., leverage the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK feature of perf_events. There is a new option to active this mode: -b. It is possible to pass a set of filters to select the type of branches to sample. The following filters are available: - any : any type of branches - any_call : any function call or system call - any_ret : any function return or system call return - any_ind : any indirect branch - u: only when the branch target is at the user level - k: only when the branch target is in the kernel - hv: only when the branch target is in the hypervisor Filters can be combined by passing a comma separated list to the option: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy Signed-off-by: Roberto Agostino Vitillo <ravitillo@lbl.gov> Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: peterz@infradead.org Cc: acme@redhat.com Cc: robert.richter@amd.com Cc: ming.m.lin@intel.com Cc: andi@firstfloor.org Cc: asharma@fb.com Cc: vweaver1@eecs.utk.edu Cc: khandual@linux.vnet.ibm.com Cc: dsahern@gmail.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1328826068-11713-13-git-send-email-eranian@google.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> |
