2018-03-08perf intel-pt: Fix overlap detection to identify consecutive buffers correctlyAdrian Hunter
Overlap detection was not not updating the buffer's 'consecutive' flag. Marking buffers consecutive has the advantage that decoding begins from the start of the buffer instead of the first PSB. Fix overlap detection to identify consecutive buffers correctly.

2017-06-21perf intel-pt: Add decoder support for CBR eventsAdrian Hunter
Add decoder support for informing the tools of changes to the core-to-bus ratio (CBR).

2017-06-21perf intel-pt: Add decoder support for ptwrite and power event packetsAdrian Hunter
Add decoder support for PTWRITE, MWAIT, PWRE, PWRX and EXSTOP packets. This patch only affects the decoder, so the tools still do not select or consume the new information. That is added in subsequent patches.

2017-06-21perf intel-pt: Allow decoding with branch tracing disabledAdrian Hunter
The kernel now supports the disabling of branch tracing, however the decoder assumes branch tracing is always enabled. Pass through a parameter to indicate whether branch tracing is enabled and use it to avoid cases when the decoder is expecting branch packets. There are 2 such cases. First, FUP packets which can bind to an IP even when there is no branch tracing. Secondly, the decoder will try to use branch packets to find an IP to start decoding or to recover from errors.

2016-10-24perf intel-pt/bts: Report instruction bytes and length in sampleAndi Kleen
Change Intel PT and BTS to pass up the length and the instruction bytes of the decoded or sampled instruction in the perf sample. The decoder already knows this information, we just need to pass it up. Since it is only a couple of movs it is not very expensive. Handle instruction cache too. Make sure ilen is always initialized. Used in the next patch. [Adrian: re-base on top (and adjust for) instruction buffer size tidy-up] [Adrian: add BTS support and adjust commit message accordingly] Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1475847747-30994-3-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2016-09-29perf intel-pt: Enable decoder to handle TIP.PGD with missing IPAdrian Hunter
When address filters are used, the decoder must detect the end of a filter region (or a branch into a tracestop region) by matching Packet Generation Disabled (TIP.PGD) packets against the object code using the IP given in the packet. However, due to errata SKL014 "Intel PT TIP.PGD May Not Have Target IP Payload", that IP may not be present. Enable the decoder to handle that by adding a new callback function 'pgd_ip()' which indicates whether the IP is not traced, in which case that is the point where the trace was disabled.

2015-08-24perf tools: Add Intel PT support for decoding MTC packetsAdrian Hunter
MTC packets provide finer grain timestamp information than TSC packets. MTC packets record time using the hardware crystal clock (CTC) which is related to TSC packets using a TMA packet. This patch just adds decoder support. Support for a default value and validation of values is provided by a later patch. Also documentation is updated in a separate patch. For details refer to the June 2015 or later Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures SDM Chapter 36 Intel Processor Trace.

2015-08-24perf tools: Pass Intel PT information for decoding MTC and CYCAdrian Hunter
Record additional information in the AUXTRACE_INFO event in preparation for decoding MTC and CYC packets. Pass the information to the decoder. The AUXTRACE_INFO record can be extended by using the size to indicate the presence of new members. The additional information includes PMU config bit positions and the TSC to CTC (hardware crystal clock) ratio needed to decode MTC packets.

2015-08-24perf tools: Fix Intel PT 'instructions' sample periodAdrian Hunter
The period on synthesized 'instructions' samples was being set to a fixed value, whereas the correct value is the number of instructions since the last sample, which is a value that the decoder can provide. So do it that way.

2015-08-17perf tools: Add Intel PT decoderAdrian Hunter
Add support for decoding an Intel Processor Trace. Intel PT trace data must be 'decoded' which involves walking the object code and matching the trace data packets. The decoder requests a buffer of binary data via a get_trace() call-back, which it decodes using instruction information which it gets via another call-back walk_insn().
