[PATCH v5 6/9] perf cs-etm: Support callchain for instruction sample
From: Leo Yan
Date: Thu Feb 20 2020 - 00:28:52 EST
Now CoreSight has supported the thread stack; based on the thread stack
we can synthesize call chain for the instruction sample; the call chain
can be injected by option '--itrace=g'.
Note the stack event must be processed prior to synthesizing instruction
sample; this can ensure the thread stack to push and pop synchronously
with instruction sample and the thread stack can be generated correctly
for instruction samples. Add a comment for related info.
Before:
# perf script --itrace=g16l64i100
main 1579 100 instructions: ffff0000102137f0 group_sched_in+0xb0 ([kernel.kallsyms])
main 1579 100 instructions: ffff000010213b78 flexible_sched_in+0xf0 ([kernel.kallsyms])
main 1579 100 instructions: ffff0000102135ac event_sched_in.isra.57+0x74 ([kernel.kallsyms])
main 1579 100 instructions: ffff000010219344 perf_swevent_add+0x6c ([kernel.kallsyms])
main 1579 100 instructions: ffff000010214854 perf_event_update_userpage+0x4c ([kernel.kallsyms])
[...]
After:
# perf script --itrace=g16l64i100
main 1579 100 instructions:
ffff000010213b78 flexible_sched_in+0xf0 ([kernel.kallsyms])
