Subject: [Patch v9 09/10] perf tests: Add x86 eGPRs/SSP registers sampling test
Date: Mon,  6 Jul 2026 10:34:43 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260706023444.3067660-10-dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260706023444.3067660-1-dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>

Validate that eGPRs (extended general purpose registers) and SSP
(shadow stack pointer) registers can be sampled correctly on x86
platforms with hardware support.
