[PATCH 2/7] perf, x86: Basic Haswell LBR call stack support
From: Yan, Zheng
Date: Sun Feb 24 2013 - 21:02:51 EST
From: "Yan, Zheng" <zheng.z.yan@xxxxxxxxx>
The new HSW call stack feature provides a facility such that
unfiltered call data will be collected as normal, but as return
instructions are executed the last captured branch record is
popped from the LBR stack. Thus, branch information relative to
leaf functions will not be captured, while preserving the call
stack information of the main line execution path.
Signed-off-by: Yan, Zheng <zheng.z.yan@xxxxxxxxx>
