[PATCH V6 14/17] perf tools: Intel PT to always update thread stack trace number

From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Fri May 29 2015 - 09:38:59 EST


The enhanced thread stack is used by higher layers but still requires
the trace number. The trace number is used to distinguish discontinuous
sections of trace (for example from Snapshot mode or Sample mode), which
cause the thread stack to be flushed.
