Subject[patch][v2] x86, ptrace: support for branch trace store(BTS)
Date
From
Changes to previous version:
- moved task arrives/departs notifications to __switch_to_xtra()
- added _TIF_BTS_TRACE and _TIF_BTS_TRACE_TS to _TIF_WORK_CTXSW_*
- split _TIF_WORK_CTXSW into ~_PREV and ~_NEXT for x86_64
- ptrace_bts_init_intel() function called from init_intel()
- removed PTRACE_BTS_INIT ptrace command


Support for Intel's last branch recording to ptrace. This gives
debuggers
access to this hardware feature and allows them to show an execution
trace
of the debugged application.

Last branch recording (see section 18.5 in the Intel 64 and IA-32
Architectures Software Developer's Manual) allows taking an execution
trace of the running application without instrumentation. When a branch
is executed, the hardware logs the source and destination address in a
cyclic buffer given to it by the OS.

This can be a great debugging aid. It shows you how exactly you got
where you currently are without requiring you to do lots of single
stepping and rerunning.

This patch manages the various buffers, configures the trace
hardware, disentangles the trace, and provides a user interface via
ptrace. On the high-level design:
- there is one optional trace buffer per thread_struct
- upon a context switch, the trace hardware is reconfigured to either
disable tracing or to use the appropriate buffer for the new task.
- tracing induces ~20% overhead as branch records are sent out on
the bus.
- the hardware collects trace per processor. To disentangle the
traces for different tasks, we use separate buffers and reconfigure
the trace hardware.
- the internal buffer interpretation as well as the corresponding
operations are selected at run-time by hardware detection
- different processors use different branch record formats

Opens:
- warnings due to code sharing between i386 and x86_64
- support for more processors (to come)
- ptrace command numbers (just picked some numbers randomly)
