[PATCH 01/16] perf: Unified API to record selective sets of arch registers

From: Jiri Olsa
Date: Wed May 23 2012 - 15:36:41 EST


This brings a new API to help the selective dump of registers on
event sampling, and its implementation in x86.

Added HAVE_PERF_REGS config option to determine if the architecture
provides perf registers ABI.

The architecture must provide a non-zero and unique id to
identify the origin of a register set because interpreting a
register dump requires to know from which architecture it comes.
The achitecture is considered different between the 32 and 64 bits.
x86-32 has the id 1, x86-64 has the id 2.

The information about desired registers will be passed
in u64 mask. It's up to the architecture to map the
registers into the mask bits.
