Subject: [PATCH 55/60] perf callchain: Stitch LBR call stack
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@...ux.intel.com>
In LBR call stack mode, the depth of reconstructed LBR call stack limits
to the number of LBR registers.
For example, on skylake, the depth of reconstructed LBR call stack is
always <= 32.
# To display the perf.data header info, please use
# --header/--header-only options.
#
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 6K of event 'cycles'
# Event count (approx.): 6487119731

For a call stack which is deeper than LBR limit, HW will overwrite the
LBR register with oldest branch. Only partial call stacks can be
reconstructed.
However, the overwritten LBRs may still be retrieved from previous
sample. At that moment, HW hasn't overwritten the LBR registers yet.
Perf tools can stitch those overwritten LBRs on current call stacks to
get a more complete call stack.
To determine if LBRs can be stitched, perf tools need to compare current
sample with previous sample.
- They should have identical LBR records (Same from, to and flags
values, and the same physical index of LBR registers).
- The searching starts from the base-of-stack of current sample.
Once perf determines to stitch the previous LBRs, the corresponding LBR
cursor nodes will be copied to 'lists'. The 'lists' is to track the LBR
cursor nodes which are going to be stitched.
When the stitching is over, the nodes will not be freed immediately.
They will be moved to 'free_lists'. Next stitching may reuse the space.
Both 'lists' and 'free_lists' will be freed when all samples are
processed.
Committer notes:
Fix the intel-pt.c initialization of the union with 'struct
branch_flags', that breaks the build with its unnamed union on older gcc
versions.
Uninline thread__free_stitch_list(), as it grew big and started dragging
includes to thread.h, so move it to thread.c where what it needs in
terms of headers are already there.
This fixes the build in several systems such as debian:experimental when
cross building to the MIPS32 architecture, i.e. in the other cases what
was needed was being included by sheer luck.
