Message-Id: <1431637800-31061-1-git-send-email-eranian@google.com> Date: Thu, 14 May 2015 23:09:57 +0200 From: Stephane Eranian <eranian@...gle.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: acme@...hat.com, peterz@...radead.org, mingo@...e.hu, ak@...ux.intel.com, jolsa@...hat.com, namhyung@...nel.org, kan.liang@...el.com, dsahern@...il.com Subject: [PATCH v1 0/3] perf: add indirect jump filtering support This short patch series adds a new filter to the branch stack sampling feature. The new filter enables sampling only indirect jumps. For each the source and target are captured. The new branch_sample_type flag is: PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_IND_JUMP The series provides full support in the perf record tool: $ perf record -j ind_jmp ... On Intel x86 processors, the filter is implemented using the LBR hw filter. This filter is useful to study targets of indirect jumps.
