Subject: [PATCH] perf script: Add 'brstackinsnlen' for branch stacks
Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2022 07:00:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1647871212-184070-1-git-send-email-kan.liang@linux.intel.com> (raw)
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com>
When analyzing with the perf script, it's useful to understand the
captured instruction and the next sequential instruction. To calculate
the address of the next sequential instruction, the length of the
captured instruction is required. For example, you can’t know the next
sequential instruction after an unconditional branch unless you
calculate that based on its length.
For branch stacks, the current perf script only prints the instruction
bytes with 'brstackinsn', but lack of instruction length.
Add 'brstackinsnlen' to print the instruction length.
$perf script -F ip,brstackinsn,brstackinsnlen --xed
