Subject: [PATCH 1/3] perf intel-pt: Fix transaction abort handling
Date: Wed, 19 May 2021 10:45:13 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210519074515.9262-2-adrian.hunter@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210519074515.9262-1-adrian.hunter@intel.com>

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 machne 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
