perf machine: Refine the function for LBR call stack reconstruction
LBR only collect the user call stack. To reconstruct a call stack, both kernel call stack and user call stack are required. The function resolve_lbr_callchain_sample() mix the kernel call stack and user call stack. Now, with the help of HW idx, perf tool can reconstruct a more complete call stack by adding some user call stack from previous sample. However, current implementation is hard to be extended to support it. Current code path for resolve_lbr_callchain_sample() for (j = 0; j < mix_chain_nr; j++) { if (ORDER_CALLEE) { if (kernel callchain) Fill callchain info else if (LBR callchain) Fill callchain info } else { if (LBR callchain) Fill callchain info else if (kernel callchain) Fill callchain info } add_callchain_ip(); } With the patch, if (ORDER_CALLEE) { for (j = 0; j < NUM of kernel callchain) { Fill callchain info add_callchain_ip(); } for (; j < mix_chain_nr) { Fill callchain info add_callchain_ip(); } } else { for (; j < NUM of LBR callchain) { Fill callchain info add_callchain_ip(); } for (j = 0; j < mix_chain_nr) { Fill callchain info add_callchain_ip(); } } No functional changes.
