Re: [PATCH V5 1/3] riscv: Add perf callchain support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We need know the values of *regs, eg: regs->sepc, regs->ra, regs->fp,
regs->sp, regs->tp

void perf_callchain_kernel(struct perf_callchain_entry_ctx *entry,
   struct pt_regs *regs)
{
...
 walk_stackframe(&fr, entry);

// May be we could detect error here and print the regs' value
}
