[PATCH v5 4/4] perf tools: Support "branch-misses:pp" on arm64
From: James Clark
Date: Tue Feb 25 2020 - 06:58:00 EST
From: Tan Xiaojun <tanxiaojun@xxxxxxxxxx>
At the suggestion of James Clark, use spe to support the precise
ip of some events. Currently its support event is:
branch-misses.
Example usage:
$ ./perf record -e branch-misses:pp dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null count=10000
(:p/pp/ppp is same for this case.)
$ ./perf report --stdio
("--stdio is not necessary")
--------------------------------------------------------------------

# Samples: 14 of event 'branch-misses:pp'
# Event count (approx.): 14
