[PATCH 4.14 10/79] perf intel-pt: Fix transaction abort handling
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

commit cb7987837c31b217b28089bbc78922d5c9187869 upstream.
When adding support for power events, some handling of FUP packets was
unified. That resulted in breaking reporting of TSX aborts, by not
considering the associated TIP packet. Fix that.
Example:
A machine that supports TSX is required. It will have flag "rtm". Kernel
parameter tsx=on may be required.
# for w in `cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -m1 flags `;do echo $w | grep rtm ; done
rtm
Test program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <immintrin.h>
int main()
{
int x = 0;
if (_xbegin() == _XBEGIN_STARTED) {
x = 1;
_xabort(1);
} else {
printf("x = %d\n", x);
}
return 0;
}
Compile with -mrtm i.e.
gcc -Wall -Wextra -mrtm xabort.c -o xabort
Record:
perf record -e intel_pt/cyc/u --filter 'filter main @ ./xabort' ./xabort
Before:
# perf script --itrace=be -F+flags,+addr,-period,-event --ns
