[PATCH 5.15 057/137] perf: Add irq and exception return branch types

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

 



5.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Anshuman Khandual <anshuman.khandual@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit cedd3614e5d9c80908099c19f8716714ce0610b1 ]

This expands generic branch type classification by adding two more entries
there in i.e irq and exception return. Also updates the x86 implementation
to process X86_BR_IRET and X86_BR_IRQ records as appropriate. This changes
branch types reported to user space on x86 platform but it should not be a
problem. The possible scenarios and impacts are enumerated here.
