Also, when using 'perf record -I foobar' it should record all registers,
which I think includes the xmm registers in capable platforms, from your
'Add perf script support to dump them', so I tried running it here on a
skylake notebook, i.e. where it fails when I ask for a specific xmm
register:
# perf record -Isi,di,xmm0 sleep 1
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cycles).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
# perf record -I?
available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15 XMM0 XMM1 XMM2 XMM3 XMM4 XMM5 XMM6 XMM7 XMM8 XMM9 XMM10 XMM11 XMM12 XMM13 XMM14 XMM15
Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
-I, --intr-regs[=<any register>]
sample selected machine registers on interrupt, use -I ? to list register names
#
But when I try asking for all those "available" registers, it doesn't
seem to ask for the xmm registers, i.e. it works:
[root@quaco ~]# perf record -I
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.812 MB perf.data (2036 samples) ]
# perf evlist -v

So, can you please check all this and please consider sending a fix that
comes with output for the steps used to test it, like above.
I'm applying this now because it adds a ability that, used with the
above caveats in mind, is useful, but please help improving the output
so that users don't get confused.
For instance, the 'perf record -I?' code should probe for the existence
of these registers in the combo kernel+hardware, by creating an event,
asking the kernel to record those registers and checking if the kernel
supports this and the hardware has such registers.
Thanks,
