[Ian Munsie]

These patches add the required mappings to use perf probe on PowerPC.

Functionality wise it requires patch 359e4284a3f37aba7fd06d993863de2509d86f54
from the powerpc-next tree to provide the HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API
required for CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT. The code will still compile cleanly without
it and will fail gracefully at runtime on the missing CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT
support as before.

Part 1 of the patch series moves the arch dependent x86 32 and 64 bit DWARF
register number mappings out into a separate arch directory and adds the
necessary Makefile foo to use it.

Part 2 of the patch series adds the PowerPC mappings.

Thanks,
-Ian

[PATCH 1/2] perf: Move arch specific code into separate arch directory

[Ian Munsie]

From: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au.ibm.com>

The perf userspace tool included some architecture specific code to map
registers from the DWARF register number into the names used by the regs
and stack access API.

This patch moves the architecture specific code out into a seperate
arch/x86 directory along with the infrastructure required to use it.

[PATCH 2/2] perf probe: Add PowerPC DWARF register number mappings

[Ian Munsie]

From: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au.ibm.com>

This patch adds mappings from the register numbers from DWARF to the
register names used in the PowerPC Regs and Stack Access API. This
allows perf probe to be used to record variable contents on PowerPC.

This patch depends on functionality in the powerpc/next tree, though it
will compile fine without it. Specifically this patch depends on
359e4284a3f37aba7fd06d993863de2509d86f54

[PATCH 2/2] perf probe: Add PowerPC DWARF register number mappings

[Ian Munsie]

From: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au.ibm.com>

This patch adds mappings from the register numbers from DWARF to the
register names used in the PowerPC Regs and Stack Access API. This
allows perf probe to be used to record variable contents on PowerPC.

This patch depends on functionality in the powerpc/next tree, though it
will compile fine without it. Specifically this patch depends on
359e4284a3f37aba7fd06d993863de2509d86f54

Could you add a check whether the get_arch_regstr() is defined
(or dwarf-regs.h is exist) in Makefile?
If it is not defined, we'd better drop dwarf support(so set NO_DWARF),
because it means we haven't ported perf probe on that architecture yet. :)

If we checked above dwarf support, we don't need this odd macro.

Again, if we add a check in Makefile, we can remove this completely.

Could you add a check whether the get_arch_regstr() is defined
(or dwarf-regs.h is exist) in Makefile?
If it is not defined, we'd better drop dwarf support(so set NO_DWARF),
because it means we haven't ported perf probe on that architecture yet. :)

If we checked above dwarf support, we don't need this odd macro.

Again, if we add a check in Makefile, we can remove this completely.

Hi Masami,

Thanks for the feedback

I was a little reluctant to do that when I first read your message
because it felt like adding autoconf stuff into the Makefile and the
code should already fail gracefully on architectures without the
register mappings. But, since the Makefile already has some autoconf
like magic and it would make the code cleaner, I'll play with the idea a
bit more tomorrow.
