Subject: [Patch v9 20/24] perf/x86: Support SSP sampling using sample_regs_* fields
Date: Mon,  6 Jul 2026 09:54:35 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260706015439.3040804-21-dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260706015439.3040804-1-dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>

Support sampling of CET SSP register via the sample_regs_* fields.

To sample SSP, the sample_simd_regs_enabled field must be set. This
allows the spare space (reclaimed from the original XMM space) in the
sample_regs_* fields to be used for representing SSP.

Similar to eGPRs sampling, the perf_reg_value() function needs to
check if the PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_ABI_SIMD flag is set first, and then
determine whether to output SSP or legacy XMM registers to userspace.

Additionally, arch-PEBS supports sampling SSP, which is placed into the
GPRs group. Also enables arch-PEBS-based SSP sampling in this patch.

Currently, SSP sampling is only supported on the x86_64 architecture, as
CET is only available on x86_64 platforms.

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