[PATCH] perf: libdw support for powerpc

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Thu May 18 2017 - 13:00:29 EST


The ARM and x86 architectures already use libdw, and it is useful to
have as much common code for the unwinder as possible. Porting PPC
to libdw only needs an architecture-specific hook to move the register
state from perf to libdw.
