So, I asked for callchains, with:
perf record -g -e intel_bts// ls
And it got stuck somewhere, then I did a perf top to see where it was,
and got to:
96.24% perf [.] intel_bts_process_queue
Annotating I get to:
1.17 â1a0:âââmov 0x8(%r13),%rdx
â â test %rdx,%rdx
98.83 â âââje 1a0
Which is an endless loop! Source code for intel_bts_process_buffer(),
inlined there:
while (sz > sizeof(struct branch)) {
if (!branch->from && !branch->to)
continue;
err = intel_bts_synth_branch_sample(btsq, branch);
if (err)
break;
branch += 1;
sz -= sizeof(struct branch);
}
Can you fix this, please, so that I can fold it into where it was
introduced, namely:
commit 439ad895a2aecea09416206f023336297cc72efe
