[PATCH V13 06/10] arm64/perf: Enable branch stack events via FEAT_BRBE

Anshuman Khandual anshuman.khandual at arm.com
Wed Jun 21 23:53:47 PDT 2023


This enables branch stack sampling events in ARMV8 PMU, via an architecture
feature FEAT_BRBE aka branch record buffer extension. This defines required
branch helper functions pmuv8pmu_branch_XXXXX() and the implementation here
is wrapped with a new config option CONFIG_ARM64_BRBE.
