Subject: [Patch v9 14/24] perf/x86: Support XMM sampling using sample_simd_vec_reg_* fields
Date: Mon,  6 Jul 2026 09:54:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260706015439.3040804-15-dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260706015439.3040804-1-dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>

Support sampling of XMM registers using the sample_simd_vec_reg_* fields.

When sample_simd_regs_enabled is set, the original XMM space in the
sample_regs_* field is treated as reserved. An INVAL error will be
reported to user space if any bit is set in the original XMM space while
sample_simd_regs_enabled is set.

The perf_reg_value function requires ABI information to understand the
layout of sample_regs. To accommodate this, a new abi field is introduced
in the struct x86_perf_regs to represent ABI information.

Additionally, the X86-specific perf_simd_reg_value function is implemented
to retrieve the XMM register values.

XMM sampling will be enabled in a subsequent patch that sets
PERF_PMU_CAP_SIMD_REGS.
