[PATCH v2 3/4] perf/x86/intel: implement LBR callstacks context synchronization

From: Alexey Budankov
Date: Wed Oct 16 2019 - 05:50:36 EST



Implement intel_pmu_lbr_sync_task_ctx() method that updates counter
of the events that requested LBR callstack data on a sample.

The counter can be zero for the case when task context belongs to
a thread that has just come from a block on a futex and the context
contains saved (lbr_stack_state == LBR_VALID) LBR register values.

For the values to be restored at LBR registers on the next thread's
switch-in event it copies the counter value that is expected to be
non zero from the previous equivalent task perf event context.
