Subject: [PATCH 69/73] perf intel-pt: Fix sample timestamp wrt non-taken branches
Date: Fri, 17 May 2019 16:36:07 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190517193611.4974-70-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190517193611.4974-1-acme@kernel.org>

From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>

The sample timestamp is updated to ensure that the timestamp represents
the time of the sample and not a branch that the decoder is still
walking towards. The sample timestamp is updated when the decoder
returns, but the decoder does not return for non-taken branches. Update
the sample timestamp then also.

Note that commit 3f04d98e972b5 ("perf intel-pt: Improve sample
timestamp") was also a stable fix and appears, for example, in v4.4
stable tree as commit a4ebb58fd124 ("perf intel-pt: Improve sample
timestamp").
