From 241771ef016b5c0c83cd7a4372a74321c973c1e6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Wed, 3 Dec 2008 10:39:53 +0100 Subject: performance counters: x86 support Implement performance counters for x86 Intel CPUs. It's simplified right now: the PERFMON CPU feature is assumed, which is available in Core2 and later Intel CPUs. The design is flexible to be extended to more CPU types as well.

For now use a second IRQ vector, because the primary vector pokes the apic in funny ways that seem to confuse things.

The caller already saved off the registers that the callee can modify. The returning function already saved the registers it modified. When we call our own trace function it too will save the registers that the callee must restore. There's no reason to save off anything more that the registers used to return the values. Note, I did a complete kernel build with this modification and the function graph tracer running on x86_64.

Xen does not do this, and so the frames were being misinterpreted by the ptrace code. This change special-cases these two exceptions by using Xen variants which run on the normal kernel stack properly.
