[PATCH V2 03/13] perf tools: Support new branch sample type for LBR TOS

From: kan . liang
Date: Mon Oct 21 2019 - 16:04:58 EST


From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Support new branch sample type for LBR TOS.

Enable LBR_TOS by default in LBR call stack mode.
If kernel doesn't support the sample type, switching it off.

Add a new branch options "tos" for the new branch sample type.

Set tos to -1ULL if the LBR TOS information is unavailable.
