[PATCH 04/44] perf tools: Add support for AUX area recording

From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Thu Apr 09 2015 - 11:57:08 EST


Add support for reading from the AUX area
tracing mmap and synthesizing AUX area
tracing events.

This patch introduces an abstraction for recording
AUX area data. Recording is initialized
by auxtrace_record__init() which is a weak function
to be implemented by the architecture to provide
recording callbacks. Recording is mainly handled
by auxtrace_mmap__read() and
perf_event__synthesize_auxtrace() but there are
callbacks for miscellaneous needs including
validating and processing user options, populating
private data in auxtrace_info_event, and freeing
the structure when finished.
