[patch 1/1] x86, ptrace: PEBS support

From: Markus Metzger
Date: Tue Apr 08 2008 - 05:03:31 EST


Polish the ds.h interface and add support for PEBS.

Ds.c is meant to be the resource allocator for per-thread and per-cpu
BTS and PEBS recording.
It is used by ptrace/utrace to provide execution tracing of debugged tasks.
It will be used by profilers (e.g. perfmon2).
It may be used by kernel debuggers to provide a kernel execution trace.

Changes in detail:
- guard DS and ptrace by CONFIG macros
- separate DS and BTS more clearly
- simplify field accesses
- add functions to manage PEBS buffers
- add simple protection/allocation mechanism
- added support for Atom


Opens:
- buffer overflow handling
Currently, only circular buffers are supported. This is all we need
for debugging. Profilers would want an overflow notification.
This is planned to be added when perfmon2 is made to use the ds.h
interface.
- utrace intermediate layer

* Debug Store (DS) support
*
* This provides a low-level interface to the hardware's Debug Store
- * feature that is used for last branch recording (LBR) and
+ * feature that is used for branch trace store (BTS) and
* precise-event based sampling (PEBS).
*
- * Different architectures use a different DS layout/pointer size.
- * The below functions therefore work on a void*.
+ * It manages:
+ * - per-thread and per-cpu allocation of BTS and PEBS
+ * - buffer memory allocation (optional)
+ * - buffer overflow handling
+ * - buffer access
+ *
+ * It assumes:
+ * - get_task_struct on all parameter tasks
+ * - current is allowed to trace parameter tasks
*
*
- * Since there is no user for PEBS, yet, only LBR (or branch
- * trace store, BTS) is supported.
