Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] perf inject: Emit instruction records on ETM trace discontinuity
Date: Wed, 14 Feb 2018 11:24:40 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1518607481-4059-3-git-send-email-robert.walker@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1518607481-4059-1-git-send-email-robert.walker@arm.com>
There may be discontinuities in the ETM trace stream due to overflows or
ETM configuration for selective trace. This patch emits an instruction
sample with the pending branch stack when a TRACE ON packet occurs
indicating a discontinuity in the trace data.
A new packet type CS_ETM_TRACE_ON is added, which is emitted by the low
level decoder when a TRACE ON occurs. The higher level decoder flushes the
branch stack when this packet is emitted.
